Attachment blocked error in outlook

Image
After applying the June update for Outlook 2007, 2010, 2013 or Outlook 2016, many of the know extension attachments gets blocked from being opened. There are couple of reason behind that. Below are the solution for this issue. Ø    Attachments could get blocked as they are blocked as “unsafe attachments” even when they have the normal file extensions. (Like pdf, docx, xlsx). Ø    The blocked attachments are mentioned at the top of the mail body . Ø    Attachments like word file, excel file, pdf, etc in the message body gets blocked & this generates the error. o     The program used to create this object is Outlook. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install Outlook or ensure that any dialog boxes in Outlook are closed. Above the snap for the same. This error is occurring after the patch update for June 2017. So to resolve this issue you have to uninstall the outlook patch from June 2017
