Thunderbird attachements

Thunderbird Załączniki

Hello,

When I try to save attachments from emails directly on my Computer, they never arrive at the destination folder - not individual files nor "save all attachements". Although the procedure '(left button menu - save - [navigation through file system till to the destination-folder] - save here') is "normal" and does not give any error message.

I can only save attachements, when i first open them (e.g. in word), and save them from there in its destination folder. This is quite a complicated procedure .. one should be able to save attachments directly from Thunderbird, without opening it.

What is the reason for this problem? Are there any options, is it a local problem (but it is a brandnew Laptop) or is it a bug in Thunderbird?

Best, Renate Albrecher

If you are using McAfee antivirus, that may be the cause. Turning off live scan fixes it.
