Hi List
When I open an Attachment in Protected View I get no response from any key stroke/s I make. Alt-F etc does not respond at all.

You have to unprotect the document before you can touch it. If you're someone who only opens attachments from known sources they trust, you can consider following these instructions (MS-Word format) for, Adjusting Protected View Settings in MS-Office Programs. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.

Sometimes if you alt-tab away from the document and alt-tab back, you get results. another thing to try is f6. If you're lucky, that will take you to an edit button, and pressing that will free things up. Alt-f, then i, then e will also unprotect the document, but only if you can get alt-f to work.

Ann,

Let me add to your mention of f6 that you then tab once. I can't remember the word you hear, but it's something like unprotect or clear or open. Press enter, and the file becomes unprotected. This method has worked consistently for me for some time.

Dean, Are you sure the attachment is opening in a Microsoft office program outside your email client? To your point, if I have an attachment open and it’s in protected view, I can hit Insert T to read the title and it will announced that it’s in protected view, then use one of the methods like F6 to get to the bar where I can hit the enable editing button. The reason I ask is that there is an annoying setting in Outlook that will open attachments in “preview”, which is actually showing a preview of the attachment within Outlook and, in my recollection, that won’t read at all. It’s typically the first context menu option if you right click the attachment and, quite possibly, a default setting in Outlook. I recall having to make an adjustment in Outlook Options somewhere to disable the preview.
