    Hi Santhosh Vazhakatu Thazhatedil

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum 

    To better understand your situation and give the best advice, may I clarify a few details: 

    1.Just to double confirm: Is this computer a personal/home computer or a company-managed (corporate) laptop/desktop? 

    2.Does the error appear Immediately when opening the file, or Only when you run a specific macro / click a specific button / open a specific sheet? 

    3.Are you opening the file from a network drive / shared folder / OneDrive / SharePoint, or From your local computer (Desktop/Downloads, etc.)? 

    4.Does the same file open and run without error on any other computer in your team? 

     

    The initial response may not fully address your needs, but it will help me better understand your situation and give the advice. Thank you for your patience while we work through it
