Hi .

Professor Robert McMillen shows you how to attach a file using Outlook Web App 2019. https://everteacher.amebaownd.com/posts/20589487. Symptom: Clicking the paperclip in Webmail doesn't do anything. Can't attach a file to an email message. Fix 1: Install Silverlight. Make sure Silverlight is installed in your browser (Internet Explorer and Chrome v38 and later) Open Outlook Web App; Click the? Under your name at the top right of the window; Click About.

Might be a cookies, cache, extensions, or plug-ins issue.

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.

Click: Remove All Website Data

Then delete the cache.

Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder

Type or copy paste the following

~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db

Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.

Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

If that didn't help, from the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.

If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.

Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

I frequently use the drag & drop method to add an attachment to an email directly from Explorer rather than using the Attach File button.

However, as of recently, this method no longer works for me. When I try, the cursor turns into some sort of a forbidden/blocked/unavailable sign.

Is there any way I can reinstate the “drag & drop to attach” feature again?

There are 2 common situations in which the drag & drop feature breaks but luckily, reinstating it in either situation is very easy.

Esc, Esc, Esc

If dragging and dropping items suddenly has become unavailable to you throughout Windows (so not just Outlook), try hitting the Esc button on your keyboard a couple of times. Hitting it 3 or 4 times usually is enough to get drag & drop to work again.

I’m not sure of the root cause issue of this one but it only happened a handful of times to me over the last couple of years. Rebooting does the trick as well but that might not always be a direct option. The old habit of repeatedly pressing the Escape button actually came in useful this time.

Outlook is running with administrator permissions

Another situation in which the drag & drop feature breaks, is when Outlook has been started with elevated permissions. Or to put it in other words; it is running as an administrator.

As you are then running Outlook with different permissions than Explorer, drag & drop between the two won’t work. When you try, the cursor will turn into this blocked sign as soon as you hover with your attachment over your Outlook message rather than turning into a “move or copy selection” pointer.

Reasons for this to happen is that somehow compatibility settings were enabled for your Outlook shortcut or you held both CTRL and SHIFT while starting Outlook.

To solve this, hold the SHIFT button when right clicking on your Outlook shortcut in the Task Bar (Outlook should be closed) and choose Properties. Then, select the Compatibility tab and make sure all selections are turned off.

Most likely, the option “Run this program as an administrator” is selected for you.
