When I attach a file to an email, I usually like to view it to make sure it is the correct one. When I double click on the file, instead of viewing the file, I am now automatically prompted to save the file.

Originally a dialog box appeared with options to view or save and a checkbox to "do this automatically" from now on. I am guessing that the checkbox got checked when save was selected.

How do I cancel the automatic save and go back to prompting for view or save?

Thanks,

Ken

Tools/Options/Attachments/Incoming, delete the Action for the content type (file extension) from the drop-down Action menu, OK to close Options. Restart TB and open an attachment of that content type and set the opening app and whether to open or save the file, and whether to store the setting.
