I'm working on Windows 10 Home x64, and just updated Thunderbird to the latest version available(91.70). When I get an email with a .JPG attachment, or a .PNG, when saving the file by dbl clicking the attachment name at the bottom of the email, when I rename it, it saves with a truncated file extension. Say the file is test.jpg, when I save it, I end up with test.pg. When I tried test.png I ended up with test.ng.

If I leave the file name the same as comes in the email, it saves fine. If I use the save as function at the bottom right for the attachment I can save the file fine, and I can even rename it here. What's going on? I've replicated this on 2 different machines.

Anyone have any ideas?
