Outlook offers an Offline mode, which allows you to go through your emails without getting distracted. In this mode, while you can draft the emails, they will be available in the Outbox. If that’s the case, then any email you try to send, with or without attachment, will be sitting in the Outbox until you disable it. Open Outlook, and then switch to the Send/Recieve section. Click on Work Offline mode to disable it.

3] Increase Outlook Attachment Size

Outlook usually restricts attachment, which is closed to the maximum allowed size. So if your Email service offers 25MB of attachment size, Outlook will restrict any attachment, which exceeds 20 MB. Thankfully, you can increase the size by hacking the Registry. Once the Registry Editor is open, navigate to the following path depending on the version of your Office.

Outlook 2019 and 2016:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\­Software\­Microsoft\­Office\­16.0\­Outlook\­Preferences

Outlook 2013:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\­Software\­Microsoft\­Office\­15.0\­Outlook\­Preferences

Outlook 2010:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\­Software\­Microsoft\­Office\­14.0\­Outlook\­Preferences

Under Preferences, create a new DWORD with the name MaximumAttachmentSize. If it’s not there, then right-click and create it. Next double click on the DWORD and switch to Decimal. Set the value as 25600 (25.6MB)Registry Registry and start Outlook again. The attachment should not be an issue anymore.

4] Check Mailbox Settings

You must check the Mailbox settings for the email account that is causing the issue. Open Account Settings, and select the email account that needs a fix. Then click on the change button, and you will have options to check Mail settings, Reset Mail Settings, and so on. Use one of those options to fix the problem.

5] Disable Com Add-ins

At times, Com Add-ins, i.e., third-party plugins for Outlook, can cause issues, especially if they are related to attachments. However, before trying to disable, make sure to open Outlook in safe mode (Type outlook.exe /safe in the run prompt) and check if Outlook is working as expected. If everything is working as expected, then you can choose to disable the plugins one by one and find out which was causing the problem.

• Open Outlook, and click on File > Options > Add-ins
• Under Manage select COM Add-ins, and then click on Go Options, which is next to Manage.
• Uncheck them one by one and see disabling which plugin resolves the problem.

6] Turn off Antivirus Email Integration

Many Antivirus and Security solutions integrate with Email clients and scan for any outgoing and income attachment. If you are using any such service, it would be a good idea to disable them and check if it is working as expected. If that is the problem, you may have to configure the settings to adjust it.

7] Zip Files before sending

Lastly, if your file is significant, you may want to zip the file on the computer before attaching it to Outlook. Windows offers to archive as an essential feature. Right-click on any file or folder and select Send To from the menu. Then choose the Compress folder, and it will create a zip file of that folder or file, which will be of smaller size. You should then be able to attach it and send it across. It is, of course, applicable only inc case where you do not bale to send an attachment because of the size of the files.

8] Blocked Files

There are set of extensions or file types that are blocked by Outlook from uploading or sending as an attachment. You can better rename or use online storage to share those files instead of uploading them directly.

I hope the post was easy to follow, and you were able to send emails using Outlook in Windows, both with and without attachments.
