Attachments are not showing in TB 78.4.0

more options

Hello. My TB was working just fine this morning and at some point of the day it stopped showing attachments,just like that-I wasn't restarting TB or doing any unusual stuff on my computer. I can see and open the attachments in gmail in the browser but in TB there is only indicator that the attachment is in the e-mail (paper clip),but it is not showing when you click on the message...please help.

Do you mean that attachments such as pictures aren't displayed inline (View/Display Attachments Inline) or that the attachment pane at the bottom of a message is missing? Same result in safe mode (hold Shift when launching TB)?

I mean pane at the bottom is missing. I can see the attachments from the menu in the top right corner,but it is less convenient. Now that you mentioned safe mode (thanks a lot) I checked it and the pane at the bottom is present in this mode. So question is: is there a possibility to make it work in a normal mode or if not then does safe mode have same functionality as normal mode (if yes I will just work in sefe mode from now on).

Launch in safe mode, check 'Reset toolbars & controls', 'Make changes & restart'. Does the pane now appear in normal mode?

This is totaly weird. I was about to check your suggestion,but I accidentaly started in normal mode and what do you know...the bottom pane is back just like that,same as it disappeared before. No idea what is going on. Will see if it will work normally now and let you know in a few days. Anyway thanks a lot for your help :)

Attachments sent from Apple mail do not display icon, cannot view attachment. Other email clients or webmail handle this correctly.
