Have the send rename the file extension to something like .txt and once you get it you can rename to .reg
ASKER
so there is no other way . we dont have FTP server
see the link below to modify a registry key to stop outlook from blocking attachments

Send the file with WeTransfer

Just have sender send you content in the Txt file, and rename it once you have it to .reg, that would be the easiest way, no need to whitelist the attachment type or need of any file share.
ASKER
it cannot be resend by the sender, is there any way i can save the .reg file and open
if outlook only blocked and didn't delete the attachment try to open it in OWA
ASKER

That will not work because it is even blocked in OWA
