I use outlook with a windows 10 laptop. Just recently, whenever I add an attachment to an outgoing email and send it, I get the following error message: "We couldn't add all your attachments. Please try again." Similarly, if trying to open an attachment on an incoming email, get this message: "We couldn't download one or more attachments. Please try later." This is something new..
