Hi, I have an attachments control that allows multiple attachments. User is able to download some files but not .xlsx or .xlsm files.

I am struggling with this. How to resolve this issue?

Hi @iAm_ManCat, I have observed this is happening for more file types irrespective of file types. This also happened for docs and xlsx.

Is it possible this is being blocked by security software or a group policy? Many of the places I have worked blocked download of Excel workbooks and macro-enabled workbooks for security reasons.
