Have tried many times to attach a Word2010 document to an email using Yahoo mail. When I click attachment button the files that are shown do not include Word at all. Help please. (It used to be so simple to do)

Sometimes in a file dialog you will notice that there is a filter being applied to the right of the slot where the file name will end up. Usually this is a drop-down list that you can change to All Files (*.*). Is that possible when attaching to a Yahoo message?

Note: If there isn't All Files (*.*) on the list, type *.* in the file name box and press Enter. This also should clear the filter.

Can you get to your documents?
