Emails Attachments by novice to Vista
Something has changed in my system, as earlier on I was able to open or save Videos or Slide files. Now, the system appears to go thru the process of doing so, but will not play or save those files. At no time it will show any problem that may have been encountered during the process. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
