Outlook 2010 - Office Setup box appears when attempting to send email with attachment.

An odd issue I've found on one of my client's PC's.
When a email is generated by right-clicking a file in Windows Explorer and selecting Send To Email Recipient, and then attempting to send the email, the Office Setup window opens as if it is trying to install office.
We've found that if we close the setup the email does infact get sent, but it is a rather annoying issue to have to deal with.
It only seems to affect emails with attachments.
The client's machine is on Windows 7 in a managed operating environment.
Troubleshooting taken so far:
Repair of Office.
Removal and re-installation of Office. (several times)
Opening of Outlook Safe Mode
Temporary files have been cleared
Added line to registry: reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1

Start here
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Default Programs
It is possible that there is more than one e-mail program installed, give it a look and see what you find.

  • Received an email with attachment when I replied to the email; i can no longer view the attachement

    When replying to an email with attachment, later when I need to review the attachedment, it can't and just gives a file name <????.pdf> i tried to search my downloads and documents for the file pdf but cant be located.
    It seems that attachments are lost when you reply to an email?
    Look forward to resolving this problem with Lion

    Try a reset ...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • Outlook 2010 wont send emails with attachments

    Hello
    I was starting to write the question when we found out what the problem was. So I thought I would share our resolution in here, in case someone fall in the same issue.
    One of my user with Outlook 2010 cannot send emails with attachments of some size. +-50 kb files works fine.
    But when we try a file of 1mb, the mail goes in the Outbox, Exchange status swith from Connected to Disconnected and the email stay there.
    The user is in a remote location, connected through VPN with the network where the Exchange 2013 server is
    Here is what I did:
    1. Re-create Outlook profile: wont work
    2. Re-create Windows profile: wont work
    3. Check ip settings: fine
    4. Try in OWA: wont work
    5. Look at Exchange settings for outgoing email size: 10mb
    6. Load my user's Outlook profile on another LAN: works fine
    That last point made me thought about a potential problem on the remote user's lan. So I did
    7. Check VPN config between the remote site and IT site: fine
    After googling the problem, I found that website (http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/396793-outlook-2010-client-suddenly-showing-disconnected-from-2013-exchange-server) that suggest to change the DNS setting on the client. However, the DHCP of my remote
    user was the router itself, which is giving a DC as primary DNS, and ISP DNS as secondary. I changed the secondary DNS for another DC in our organization, and guess what? Voila! Problem is gone!
    Thinking about it that make not much sense, as the primary DNS is always up the secondary shouldn't be queried. But that's what resolved our problem.
    Hope it helps someone!

    Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
    Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
    I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
    I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
    Thanks again..
    Harv..

    I have Windows 7, Microsoft Outlook and PSE 13. I have used the "Share photos as embedded images" feature frequently, but today when I went to use it, it wasn't there, only the option to send email with files attached. How do I get back the ability to send emails with photos embedded. I like adding the frames and backgrounds and I think it's easier for recipients to look at the photos. Thanks for any suggestions of things to try.

    I had a similar problem in that my wife's iphone 5 could not send pics with imessage.  Had to set the settings to default to SMS or whatever.  After laboring many hours on the web I coincidentally was on the phone with the internet people to question my internet speed.  They changed the router channel, which is something that I am capable of doing myself.  After that, the pics go over imessage.  My own Iphone didn't have the problem.  We are both latest IOS 7.0.6.

    I ordered the new Iphone 6 and it will ship on 10/31, on 10/15 I completed the paperwork to return my iphone 4 8GB, but it appears when my paperwork was emailed to me and I didn't notice until today.  It has my return phone listed as an iphone4 16GB...is this going to be an issue?  I was quoted a trade in value of $200 and need to apply this to my iphone 6, if the trade in is not going to be $200 I need to cancel.  I did call the verizon store today and the woman told me it should be no problem, but I keep hearing horror stories about this trade in program and I need to be sure.

    susan522,
    Congratulations on the purchase of your new iPhone 6. Ordering a new device can be very exciting and we understand wanting to be able to get your hand on it as soon as possible. With the trade in program the device that is being returned should indeed match what was selected at the time the trade in was processed. What we can have you do is reach out to our trade in team to see if this will cause any problems with the amount you receive once you turn in the iPhone 4. You can reach them here http://vz.to/1pJQcUb by clicking in the "How do I contact you" section. It will allow you to send an email to the team that handles the trade in requests personally.

    1. Open iTunes.
    2. Click the View option in the iTunes menu.
    3. Select the Show Sidebar option.
    Connect your phone, select it in the Sidebar...the various tabs will now show as before.

    When attempting to open email I repeatedly get a message that my username or password is incorrect. I have tried everything to reconcile including deleting and reopening the account however nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

    If it is a POP account, there could be an issue with the outgoing server setting. It will not hurt to check this and make sure. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • System cannot find the path specified when sending emails with attachments

    I've had an on going issue for some time on one of my clients whereby users will intermittently get this error "The System cannot find the path specified." when they try to send an email with an attachment.
    The issue seems to arise generally (though reportedly not only when) when someone creates an email and attaches a file but leaves it for some time before finishing and sending.
    The staff run in a Windows 2008 R2 full Terminal Server desktop environment on Office 2010 (32-bit 14.0.7140.5002) and several staff have reported the same issue.
    I have been able to replicate the issue in their environment by creating an email and leaving it for some time.
    After a fair bit of scouting around I found that if I monitor the temp directory that the attachments get placed into (content.outlook under Temporary Internet Files on user profile) and found that the directory with the attachments would disappear after
    a period of time which would then cause the error where obviously Outlook could not find the file that had now gone.
    I don't know of any Outlook settings that would cause this and the issue isn't related to temporary Internet files filling up as I've recreated the error on a user account where there is nothing else stored in the Temporary Internet Files.
    To work around the issue I have changed the reg file that tells Outlook where to place these files (HKCU/Sofware/Microsoft/office/14.0/outlook/security - OutlookSecureTempFolder) to a location in the users home drive.
    This appears to resolve the problem however I am noticing 1 issue with this.  Unlike the temp folder which gets purged after a file is no longer required, the location I've changed it to does not clear out old files.
    While it shouldn't be too difficult to add a script that can clear the files at log off it would be good to see if anyone may know what the cause of the problem in the first place is.  I would rather it work as it should than have to bodge around changing
    the folder and scripting file deletes.
    Does anyone know of what maybe causing the attachments and content.outlook folder to disappear?
    thanks

    Do you have any redirected folder in your environment? Is the original Temporary Internet Files folder stored on a server?
    Basically, the attachments remain in the Outlook Secure Temporary File folder if we exit Microsoft Outlook while email attachments are open. See:
