    Unable to attach documents to email error The following files couldn't be attached: IMG.pdf. Please try again later

    Hi Mikalbe,

    Please answer these questions to assist you better.

    • How are you accessing mail e.g. Mail app or Outlook?
    • Is the issue with a particular format of attachments?
    I suggest you to try attaching a different format of file and check if you are able to attach file and send mail. Also install all pending Windows updates and check. If the issue still persists follow the steps below.

    App Troubleshooter

    I suggest you to run app troubleshooter for issues related to edge and check if it helps.

  4. unable to "see" phone files when attached to PC Win 10

    Winmail on win 10 doesn't show attachments

    Hi Jose,

    System files or user account corruption can cause issues when
    viewing attachments on emails in Windows 10. To better assist you, we need the answers to the following questions:

    • Just to verify, are you having issues with the built-in Mail app or with the
      Outlook desktop app?
    • Does the issue happens when you are also logged into your web mail (Outlook.com, Gmail.com, etc.)?

    In the meantime, we suggest checking the steps in this
    article to troubleshoot attachment problems in Outlook.
