You cannot use SharePoint. Your System Administrator has turned off this feature.


Hello Everybody,

Recently i was unable to open the attachments from outlook, not all but the attachments which was from sharepoint communications i.e. autogenerated emails from Alerts.

OR you will face this issue:

Any Task list | Actions toolbar item | Connect to Outlook
Receive an alert (from task, list, calendar, file, etc) in Outlook and try to open it.

Error Message: You cannot use SharePoint. Your System Administrator has turned off this feature.

Resolution:

I made the following changes in Registry Key and able to make it work. Now i can open all the attachments without any issues.

1.On the command-line and run REGEDIT

2.Go to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Office/14.0/Outlook/Options/wss

3.Double-click on the disable and change it to 0 from 1 and click ok.

4. Restart outlook and check the results


It will work as expected, Thanks

If you have any queries/questions regarding the above mentioned information then please let me know, Thanks
