I can't believe I have to ask something so dumb but how to I make Outlook ask me every time where to save the email attachments that I am downloading instead of automatically putting them in the Downloads folder?

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For home

    Yup confirmed also Client version 20240209002.12 

    Back to normal downloading of attachments automatically go to download folder without having to click where to save.

    I have the same versions

    You have Microsoft Outlook Version 1.2024.207.500 (Production). Client Version is 20240209002.12 .

    And I am asked where to save the attachment. Don't know why this happens to you. Wait a few days, in my case when new outlook upgraded to the new versions took some days the problem to be fixed

    Outlooki version 1.2024.207.500 (Production) wiht client version 20240209002.12 is not asking where to save.
    Did they turned off the "save as" function? Are others having similar experience?
