Re: Reading and editing Mails in Outlook Office 365

Hi again, Mario. I have a second question about protected Word files. If I
get a file as an email attachment, and it is protected, I can open it and
discover that it is OK. Once I do this, press ALT, followed by F,I,E, edit
the file, and save it. Once I edit this file, discover it is OK, is there a
way to unprotect this file so that I don't need to press ALT, F,I,E every
time I open the file?

Thank you.

I'm sorry, but I can't stand when someone advises to disable protection
mechanisms in certain situations instead of pressing 4 keys to enable
some action that is a simple thing to do...

I think it is not wise to disable the protection check boxes because if
a document file happens to be infected that the antivirus/antimalware
program doesn't know about or detect/catch, the document automatically
releases the threat/infection because the protection has been disabled,
and therefore having to deal with a potential headache trying to get rid
of an infection that affects the entire system. it is I think, safer to
"enable editing when ever it is needed to open/edit such a document file
whether it comes from a trusted source or not.

just, press, alt, f, i and e.
if you can't bother to press the keystroke to enable editing, then the
risk is your call.

3. Down Arrow to Trust Center
4. Press Alt-T to activate the Trust Center Settings button
5. Down Arrow to Protected View
6. Tab to the Enable Protected View for files originating from the Internet
check box
7. Press Space to uncheck the box
8. Tab to the Enable Protected View for files located in potentially unsafe
locations check box
9. Press Space to uncheck the box
10. Tab to the Enable Protected View for Outlook attachments check box
11. Press Space to uncheck the box
12. Tab to the OK button
13. Press Enter and the Trust Center dialog will close
14. Tab to the OK button
15. Press Enter and the Word Options dialog will close.

Hello Everyone,

How can I read and edit my mails in Outlook Office 365. Switching the
virtual cursor on and off is not doing the trick barrier-free for me
satisfactorily. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Best regards,

smart
