Windows 10: Can't find attachments on Windows 10 Mail App

I've linked a forum thread here to nearly the exact same issue from 6 years ago when Windows 10 first came out. I just started using Windows 10 recently for business, not by choice. I deal with PDF's a lot seeing as I'm a graphic designer who needs to send and receive graphic illustrated proofs.


Now, if there's only one email with no replies I can see attached items, it's when there's more than one email in the same "conversation" that the attachments are completely invisible. Has anyone found a way around this yet or is Microsoft working on fixing this?


I'm choosing Outlook.com as my category because Windows Mail isn't an option.

THIS THREAD IS ABOUT THE WINDOWS MAIL APP. NOT OUTLOOK.

Nice big bold letters so we all know it's not about Outlook.

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)

Windows 10 Mail App, Gmail and Pdf Attachments

Hi birdtims,

There could be a number of factors as to why you are experiencing Mail app issue. This could be caused by a software conflict or due to incorrect account configuration. Are you using Gmail account on your Mail app? Are you getting any error messages when sending/receiving
mails that come with .pdf attachments? Have you set up any rules on your account?

Meanwhile, I suggest that you run the Windows app troubleshooter from this
link. The
