Blocked Macros? Enable Macros in Microsoft Excel & Microsoft Office

Some people say, “The World runs on Macros”. This is true, almost every small office to large enterprise companies across the world use macros for Office Automation.

While opening a macro enabled file that you have saved on your computer, you may see one of the following messages.

1. Macros have been blocked

Option A - Add Trusted Location

If you trust the file then simply create a folder on your computer and tell Excel that it is a trusted folder. That’s it! All files opened from a trusted folder will open up without any warning messages.
