(Keywords: regression)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

Double-click on .doc attachment with a file name containing spaces, or use 'open', in message pane on home screen or in message display screen.

Actual results:

Word 2010 opens, but throws up a series of 'can't find' error messages - one per word in the .doc title. Attachment 'saves' correctly, and opens correctly from its saved instance. .docx files open

Expected results:

Attachment expected to open correctly directly from Thunderbird.

Did they open correctly in the previous version of Thunderbird?

Yes.

Same as bug 1601905?

Keywords: regression

Looks like same bug but for an additional attachment file type.
