MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / March 2008Outlook 2007 .msg attachments won't open
Since recently upgrading to 2007, I have run into a problem with email attachments not opening. I think I have deduced that they all have .msg extensions to the attachment file type. or it says Outlook file type. For whatever reason they won't open. Any help would be appreciated. > Since recently upgrading to 2007, I have run into a problem with email > attachments not opening.

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I;m using Outlook 2002 & have made no upgrades. Then as of just yesterday I cannot open any attachments (new or old) with .msg extension. All other extensions seem to open just fine. Could you email me back at bobwalters13@wbhsi.com if you have any information on what could have caused the problem. I used forward to send 1 of the messages to my work computer & the .msg attachment opened just fine.

I have not found or heard of a solution yet, other than Brian Tillman's reply in this thread. I will try disabling google desktop to see if that solves my issue. I hope you find a solution to your issue. > Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I;m using Outlook 2002 & have > made no upgrades.

Maybe they have an updated fix by now. >I have not found or heard of a solution yet, other than Brian Tillman's reply >in this thread.

I ran into the same problem, and fixed it by disabling the google desk top search as follows: go to Tools> Trust Center>add-ins > at the bottom Manage "pull-down box" pull down to Exchange Client Extensions > go then uncheck Google Desktop Outlook Addin What a pain to find the answer, though.
