Attachments are files or items that are added to an email message. The Microsoft Outlook mail client offers a special algorithm for saving files attached to emails.
Instructions
Step 1
Refresh your inbox list. Open and preview attachments before saving them. You can do this from an open message by double-clicking on the attached files. If there are several messages, mark the ones you need in the list with the mouse, then right-click on the list and select the "View attachments" function. If you want to view files in plain text or HTML format, go to the reading area of Microsoft Outlook, click on the required attachment, and its contents will be displayed instead of the message text.
Step 2
Save all attachments from the message to your computer's hard drive. To do this, scroll down an open letter to display the attached files. If the message is in HTML or plain text, go to the Attachments tab in the Actions menu and select Save All Attachments. To save all files from your email in RTF format, go to the File menu, select Save Attachments and click OK. Before saving attachments, specify the path to the desired folder on the hard disk of your computer.
Step 3
You can select all attachments or several of them for manual saving. To do this, click on the desired ones while holding down the CTRL key. Then go to the Attachments tab in the Actions section of the menu and click Save As. If you want to save attachments one by one, right-click on the file you need in the reading area of Microsoft Outlook and select the "Save As" command in the menu that appears. Do not forget to provide the correct path to the folder to save the files.
