I'm trying to send attachments but it's taking several tries before the
attachments goes with the e-mail.
Any insight on the problem?
 
The times when the attachment does not work, is there an error message?
Remember that the file you are attaching must be closed in all apps.
 
Yes, files closed, no error messages.

Then the only other explanation I can think of is that you are running
a non-compatible antivirus program.
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee and Norton
security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see
