Save Email attachments with ‘Save As’

If you open an email attachment on networked PC and edit it, then your file could be lost if you choose ‘save’. This is because the attachment opens from a temporary location which will be erased when you logoff. Always choose ‘Save As’ then select a location like ‘My Documents’.

Why?

•    Power outage 
•    Network problems 
•    Hardware failure
•    Fire evacuation
•    Automatic logoff
•    Unforeseen circumstances

Where to? 

The most secure place is the Microsoft OneDrive (My Documents) or any other cloud based drives. Do not save files to Workspace, Desktop or Downloads.
