Open folder where attachments have been saved

jm.zama

I haven't been able to find the answer (settings, extensions, searching in internet, ...), so I guess it is a functionality that is missing in Thunderbird, but that it would be useful for me and hopefully for others.

When I save any received attachment to disk, it would be useful to being able to open that folder directly from Thunderbird, instead of opening the explorer application and browsing to the folder where I have saved those attachments, which is slow. In Firefox, for example, when you download a file, you have a button where you can see the last downloaded files and an icon for opening the folder where they have been downloaded. In Thunderbird, it could be an additional entry in the "Save all" button/menu at the right of the attachment pane of the email (disabled if none of the attachments have been saved), or just a similar solution as Firefox (a general button with the list of recent saved attachments along a folder button for opening its location.

If, currently, there is a solution for this need, please tell me.

Sorry for the screenshot in Spanish; I hope it can help to illustrate the idea.

Best regard,

Just found that this idea was proposed some years ago. Open folder where the attached document was saved on the PC
