On the file block settings, if i disable file block for word 2007 documents (the top one) then the protected mode for outlook documents stops working for those file types as well. Why is it that protected view is enabled for all documents that are opened even though I only have protected mode enabled for outlook attachments. Why is that protected view is still enabled for saving when all the locations where it might save are added to the trusted locations.

Surely having documents open in protected view but allowing them to save should Why is there no option to only enable protected view for opening documents? It allows me to disable protected view on opening and have save only. I have added the network location where the DMS documents are saved to the trusted locations and enabled trusted locations on the network. Even when closing the document and saving it comes up with the error message about saving the document. However the problem is that documents opened from the trusted locations will not save. I got it too work perfectly where outlook attachments will always open in protected view mode and documents opening from the dms do not open in proteted view mode due to the trusted locations. To prevent malicious macros from running from outlook attachments i wanted to enable the protected view mode and set up trusted locations for all the temp folders that the DMS and word use for opening word documents from our DMS. We have a document management system and complicated macro templates and other addons which are not digitally signed so I have to enable all macros. I am trying to enable protected view mode for outlook attachments only but I find that it is not possible.
