Back in the 70.x versions, the dialog box to save attachments could be resized. That is no longer the case - its always full screen. Is there a parameter to allow sizing controls on that window?

Chosen solution

I get a standard operating system dialog offering the location and file names to use. The same dialog I get from any application. The same size as well.

Perhaps you could explain what you see in more detail, or post a screen capture of the dialog.

The following link has advice on resetting those dialogs, but I am not suggesting that will fix your issue. I am putting it here because it shows the dialogs that I am talking about. https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/52655-reset-open-save-common-item-dialog-boxes-windows.html link

Thanks Matt. Always thought this was a Thunderbird issue. As soon as I read your reply, I tried Thunderbird on another PC. Worked there. So made the registry changes on my PC with the issue and all is back to normal.
