Hi David,
Thanks for your reply!
After checked the problematic email that you send me, I believe that the
problem is not caused by the email but Outlook or Windows. In order to
narrow down this issue, I still need your help to collect the following
information:
1. Does the problem occur to all the clients or just some particular users?
2. Does the problem occur to all types of file in the file link? Try
sending a JPG or TXT file link and what's result?
3. Would the link be opened in Start/Run prompt?
4. Please capture a screenshot on the popup after clicking the file link.
Here are some general steps you may try to solve the problem:
Step 1: Reregister Urlmon.dll
==================================
This problem can occur if the registration of the Urlmon.dll file is
corrupted. To resolve this problem, Please reregister Urlmon.dll. To do
this, please follow these steps:
1. Quit all programs that are running.
2. Click Start, and then click Run.
3. In the Open box, type "regsvr32 urlmon.dll" (without the quotation
marks), and then click OK. The following message appears:

4. Click OK.
Please test to click a hyperlink again and let me know the result.
Step 2: Reset Web Settings.
