Using Thunderbird 45.5.1 with Windows 10 Pro-64. When I attach a jpg to an outgoing email and then double click on the attachment, the file will not open. When I right click the same attachment and select 'Open' nothing happens. This does not occur with pdfs or any other attached file type that I have used. When I double click on any other type of attachment in an outgoing email it will open the file but not jpgs. Jpg files will open just fine from incoming emails using Windows Photo Viewer.
