Windows 10: Single Email Attachment Sends The Entire Folder

I am a musician and for decades I've been sending songs in AOL emails as an mp3 attachment - without problems.

Now something has gone wrong.

I can still attach and send the song as normal.

But when I check my 'sent' copy, the attachment has changed name from the song title to my entire document file name.

It wont double click to open as usual. I have to open in a 'new tab' then command it to open.

When it opens, I've got my entire song filing cabinet of 80+ songs instead of just the one song I attached.

Here are the things I've tried to fix it so far. All Failed.

* Changed Browser from Edge to Chrome.
* Opened an email account with Gmail and sent songs to myself.
* Gone into 'Customise Folder' and Reset Default.
* Sent a test song attachment to a nearby relative. Same thing happens - entire folder.
* Contacted AOL Tech Help. (Appalling.) Sent round in circles by robots.

I've run out of ideas and patience.
Any help will be very gratefully received.

Acer V3-571 Laptop. Windows 10. Aol. Edge.

NB. I have to send two songs to a well known singer by end of February. (Welsh diva.)
I cant send them without sending her every song on my computer - which I cannot do.

Sending 3D created files as an email attachment

Hello,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



Usually, the 3D files saved from Mixed reality viewer or Paint 3D will be saved in the folder 3D Objects on the PC.



Since you want to send the 3D file that you created as an email attachment, you can do it by going to the email app you are using and attach the file by locating the 3D objects folder. Follow the steps to locate the 3D objects folder while attaching
the 3D file.

1. Click on the Attachment option on the email app.
   
2. Now on the attachment window locate This PC on the left hand side pane.
   
3. The 3D Objects folder will be under Folders on the right hand side pane.
   

Hope it helps.
