Hello, I have been using my hotmail email account for years to send people documents and jpegs, at least once a week, and 2 days ago I stopped being able to attach files to my email. Nothing different happened, there were no messages, I just suddenly couldn't even click on the 'attach' button (it doesn't highlight when I scroll across it anymore). It has been like this for 2 days now. My housemate also tried to attach a document to his hotmail email account on this computer and he couldn't either. I tried attaching a document to my yahoo email and that worked, so its a problem with hotmail. My hotmail has always been my main email and I am applying for jobs so really need to attach documents, they said to contact you, can you help? Thank you
