Outlook Cannot Create File Pdf
Pro and Outlook 2007. I have recently been having an issue where I am unable to add attachments to Outlook messages. Any type of attachment results in the error message box "Could not find message cannot create file pdf outlook 2010 windows 7 window". However if I right click a file and select "Send to mail receipient", the file attaches without an issue. I've tried creating a new Outlook profile, repairing, and uninstalling/reinstalling without any luck. I'm baffled!

Cannot Create File Outlook 2013 Pdf
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 http://office-outlook.com/outlook-forum/index.php/m/248340/ 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 https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/da4ceb4b-4f2d-4d9d-aceb-aef046996fc5/system-cannot-find-the-path-specified-when-sending-emails-with-attachments?forum=officeitproprevious 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 shoul
can't create the file and to that you need check the permissions on the folder you want to save it in.In most cases the permissions on the folder isn't the issue https://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm but the fact that the folder is "full". When you open http://www.groovypost.com/howto/microsoft/outlook/fix-outlook-cant-create-file-attachment-error/ an attachment directly from within Outlook it will first save a copy to a subfolder of the Temporary Internet Files folder.Cleaning out the folder will solve the issue.Outlook Secure Temp folderUnfortunately this is easier said than done. The subfolder name Outlook creates (on installation of Outlook) in cannot create the Temporary Internet Files folder is quite random.In Outlook 2003 and previous, the name starts with OLK and is followed by up to 4 random numbers or letters. In Outlook 2007 and later, this folder is called Content. Outlook and then has a subfolder which is named with with 8 random numbers and letters.In addition, by default, you cannot cannot create file simply browse to the folder to clean it out. Getting to the Temporary Outlook Folder can still be accomplished in 2 easy steps though.Step 1: Locate the folderThe folder location is stored in the registry in the following key;Outlook 97HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\8.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 98HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\8.5\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2000HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2002/XPHKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2003HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2007HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2010HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2013HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\SecurityOutlook 2016HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\SecurityStep 2: Get to the folderOpen the OutlookSecureTempFolder registry key from the location provided in Step 1.Copy the path from the key.Open Explorer.Paste the address in the Address Bar and press Enter.Paste the found path in the address bar of File Explorer to easily get to the folder.Use OutlookTools or OutlookTempCleanerStill not easy enough or just don't want to go in the Registry to find the folder location? I’ve created two free tools which can do the trick as well.OutlookTools offers besides locating, opening and cleaning up the SecureTempFolder also quite a lot of additional features to troubleshoot and tweak Outlook.OutlookTempCleaner focuses only on dealing with the SecureTempFolder and can also be used in (corporate) login and logoff scripts to clean up the folder without any end-user
Tools & Services We Recommend Subscribe Search Return to Content Fix Microsoft Outlook Can't Create File Attachment Issue Steve Krause | October 14, 2007 in groovyFixes, Outlook Recently while using Microsoft Outlook, I ran into a strange problem while trying to open an attachment that was inside an email. Each time I tried to open the attachment from the email, I would get the error message: "Can't create file: groovypost.doc. Right-click the folder you want to create the file in, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the folder." Here's a screenshot of the error message: Fortunately, the fix is easy! But first, a little background information on the problem. Scenario: The user opens email attachments with the same name multiple times over a period of time as a result of a particular job function and/or workflow. (i.e. The user receives or accesses a public folder with email notifications that contain the same attachment name; to view, they must repeatedly open them individually through Outlook.) Every time an email attachment is opened in Outlook, then a cached copy of the attachment is created within an Outlook temporary OLK folder. This folder is generated with a random name and therefore is different for every user. To see this folder, view the registry key from the user’s profile based on their Outlook version. I wrote a post earlier on how to Find the Microsoft Outlook Temporary OLK Folder. Take a look there for a MAP which details the location of the OLK folder for all versions of Outlook. Solution: Browse to the Outlook Temp OLK folder (also known as the OutlookSecureTempFolder) and delete all files matching the “
