Stop Ms-Outlook from blacklisting your attachments
Introduction: for those who would like “Microsoft Outlook” to allow a specific attachment – execution, you can use this tutorial to enable an extension. This process is quite simple and you don’t have to tell anyone to compress a file (Winzip / Winrar) and send it to you. This means, you have to download the file, extract the contents and execute the file. But, if you ignore “Outlook” security settings, you can unblock an extension from being blacklisted by Microsoft Outlook and directly execute it without wasting your time and working hours.
Warning: before you continue, this tutorial is about modifying your registry. So, please create a backup and store it in a safe place.
1.] On your Desktop, click: “Start >> Run >> Type: Regedit”
2.] Wait for the dialogue box and navigate yourself to this directory. But, be careful with your registry if you have a sensitive mouse.
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Security\
3.] When you’re in the “Security” directory, you’ll need to modify this strings: Level1Remove (REG_SZ).
Level1Remove =”.mdb;.exe;.bat;.com;” (without the quotes)
4.] Click ‘OK’ for the changes to take effect. Also, if you have ‘Outlook’ opened, just close the application and access your Inbox again.
Alternative: you can use this VBScript, if you don’t want to touch the Registry.
Just save this script as: “MS_Outlook_Security.vbs” and execute it.
That is all…
