Hello there,
This is something you need to consider changing in the next 1.8.x maintenance release (in the event of 1.8.12 comes out).
If if admin user goes to ACP >> Home ยป Attachment Types and disables some extensions. The instructions on the page "mislead" the admin to think that disabling that extension only disables the ability to attach files, but it doesn't specify that exiting attachments wont' be available.
