Cannot attach file hotmail

Frustrating! I'm here to help you troubleshoot the issue. Here are some common reasons why you might not be able to attach a file to a Hotmail email:

  1. File size limit: Hotmail has a file size limit of 20 MB. If your file is larger than this, you won't be able to attach it.
  2. File type restrictions: Hotmail may block certain file types, such as executable files (.exe), scripts (.js), or compressed files (.zip,.rar).
  3. Browser issues: Problems with your browser, such as outdated software or add-ons, can prevent file attachments.
  4. Account settings: Your Hotmail account settings might be configured to block attachments or restrict file types.
  5. Server issues: Hotmail's servers might be experiencing technical difficulties, preventing file attachments.

To resolve the issue, try the following:

  1. Check file size and type: Ensure your file is within the 20 MB limit and is a supported file type (e.g.,.docx,.pdf,.jpg).
  2. Use a different browser: Try attaching the file using a different browser, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Microsoft Edge.
  3. Clear browser cache: Clear your browser's cache and cookies to ensure you're not experiencing any browser-related issues.
  4. Check account settings: Log in to your Hotmail account and check your account settings to ensure that attachments are enabled.
  5. Try a different attachment method: Instead of attaching the file directly, try using a file-sharing service like WeTransfer or Dropbox to share the file.
  6. Contact Hotmail support: If none of the above steps work, you can contact Hotmail support for further assistance.
