I am not seeing the options described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-thunderbird-68#w_attachment-management I am using Mac OS on High Sierra and also Mojave. TB 68 It only shows the four options: Open, Save As, Detach, Delete

Are these options only for TB on Windows?? Thanks for any help.

The article is somewhat misleading. First, the PGP and Decrypt options are only available if you have the Enigmail or some other encryption add-on. Second, the Copy Link Location, Open Containing Folder and status bar display only appear when you right-click attachments that have been Detached, i.e. saved to an external folder and deleted from the message.

For all other attachments, only the four options, Open etc. appear.
