Hello,

I am getting this error while opening the Excel. I have checked the mentioned path and deleted this file. But still getting this pop up every time I open the Excel. I have also tried uninstalling MS Office and re-installing the same, but it didn't help too. Please suggest.

    Hi Jen,

    Yes, I did change the extension to .xlam. But when I did that I was getting the same initial error message.

    If you right-click on the file and select "Properties", do you see the "Unblock" option?

    I see. Have you tried disabling all add-ins?

    Hi Jen,

    I have disabled all the add-ins and it's solved now. I don't get that error message now. Thanks for your support!
