Answer by Alex Urbach

This application doesn't appear to be available anymore, therefore its compatibility is questionable since new operating systems have been released, but the application didn't receive any updates at all, making impossible to troubleshoot errors.


I strongly recommend to use another application instead of the Yahoo Mail one because you will have better support and besides that, they're all updated.


Take the settings from here and use an application listed on that page as well: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN22038.html

In case you don't have an access to the alternate recovery options, you can reset your password with the help of Security Questions but first you need to get in touch with Customer Care. To access this feature, go to Yahoo Help and use the following path: Password and sign in > Signing in or out of mail > Call Us!

I couldn't remember my secret answer, alternative email and its password. Since I moved from Nepal to Germany, my mobile number is here with me. I really need to check my mails. Can you help me to get out of it?

If you don't have access to neither of the recovery methods, then the account is lost for good since Yahoo implements a strict policy about these things. Security questions are the most important recovery feature that is used to recover your account. If you can't remember these questions, you cannot recover your account.

How do I download Yahoo Mail to my PC in order to use Yahoo Mail as my default mail account?

A
Answer by Alex Urbach

The Yahoo Mail will be installed as an add-on on your computer through the Yahoo Messenger. Make sure to leave all the settings as they are when you install the application. Yahoo Mail will be installed as add-on. The first time you access it, you should be asked to make Yahoo Mail the default client that handles the email links in your computer. You can download Yahoo Messenger from its official page.

Answer by Dan Angel

Check if the name of the files you want to attach have special characters (#, $, /, etc.). Rename those files, save them and try again. Clear your browser cache, cookies and temporary files and try to disable your security software. Also, check the troubleshooting guide provided by Yahoo Help Team.
