Have you ever been frustrated by the way Gmail displays attachments in your inbox? By default, attachments are displayed as icons, which can make it difficult to quickly identify the files you need. Fortunately, there is a way to change this setting so that attachments are displayed as a list. This can make it much easier to find and open the files you need, especially if you receive a lot of emails with attachments.
To change the way Gmail displays attachments, follow these steps:
1. Click the gear icon in the top right corner of your Gmail inbox.
2. Select “Settings” from the drop-down menu.
3. Click the “Advanced” tab.
4. Scroll down to the “Attachments” section.
5. Select “Display attachments inline” from the drop-down menu.
6. Click “Save Changes” at the bottom of the page.
Once you have made this change, attachments will be displayed as a list in your inbox. This can make it much easier to find and open the files you need, especially if you receive a lot of emails with attachments. However, it is important to note that this setting will only affect the way attachments are displayed in your inbox. Attachments will still be downloaded to your computer when you open them, so you will need to make sure you have enough space on your hard drive.
