Default Why can't I open attachments?

toolsoptionssecurity, uncheck do not allow attachments............

The default setting is the safe bet, to avoid accidentally opening or saving
viral code.

I just made an exact copy (so I thought) of my old hard drive to a new one,
using the manufacturer's copy program. When I use OE on my new drive, I
can't open or save attachments. When I double-click on the attachment file,
nothing happens. When I right click, and try to save an attachmetn, I get a
can't save error message.

If I boot to my old drive and use OE, the attachment access is fine. If I
direct OE on the old drive to use the store folders on the new drive, the
attachment access is still fine. Therefore, I must conclude that there is
something wrong with OE on the new drive.

Anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
