Change the File, Save Attachment Location in Outlook 2003
by indi on Tuesday, March 20th, 2007 | No Comments
Do you want to change the default file folder Outlook 2003 uses for attachments? While you can’t set a folder for attachments you send, you can set one for storing received attachments. You need to navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options
and add a string value called DefaultPath then enter the folder path.
The next time you use the File, Save attachment menu, Outlook’s save explorer opens to that folder.
Disclaimer: Changing registry entries is done at the user’s own risk. I take no responsibility for any problems relating to the regaistry change mentioned above
– but I have tried it and it works!
