What is the question or the issue to answer this? I was aware that you are using targetsdk 26 (i asumed it).
You need to understand the problem. That´s the reason i posted the two links.
The first to show an overview with description and additional links.
The second link is the one relevant here. You need to use the Fileprovider on Android devices with an SDK 24 or higher.

Yes, I'm working on updating apps to the sdk 26, and there are parts that I understand and work correctly like the one I show here, but I have not managed to work in the email

Dim in As Intent
           in.Initialize(in.ACTION_VIEW, CreateFileProviderUri(Starter.tempfolder, fileload))
           in.Flags = 1
           StartActivity(in)

Sub CreateFileProviderUri (Dir As String, FileName As String) As Object
   Dim FileProvider As JavaObject
   Dim context As JavaObject
   context.InitializeContext
   FileProvider.InitializeStatic("android.support.v4.content.FileProvider")
   Dim f As JavaObject
   f.InitializeNewInstance("java.io.File", Array(Dir, FileName))
   Return FileProvider.RunMethod("getUriForFile", Array(context, Application.PackageName & ".provider", f))
End Sub
