Yeah, I'm suspecting the "can't write to file" message is when trying to save the file back to its original location which is under a different user than the one who's desktop is front and center at that moment. But we'll need that error message screenshot to confirm. And then there is the

In my earlier email I suggested that you tell us the complete path/filename for those files. Windows likes to foreshorten them in some cases, especially if there are external drives involved. I should have said complete unqualified path/filename in case the path names have been shortened to stay

First, for attachment images, they need to be 'as attachment' and *not* inline. That is, in your e-mail app, attach the screenshot. Do not just paste it into the message mixed in with the text. You may also have a setting in your e-mail app for this to toggle between 'inline' and
