Permanently turn off getpivot in any and all excel files

[dayday123]

Hello - I am trying to turn off the getpivot feature but everything I find on this tells me to click on my pivot table --> options --> uncheck "Generate GetPivotData" and this does work for me in that specific workbook but then as soon as I open or create a new workbook it turns it back on? I am so frustrated!

Any ideas??

Thank you!

Try unchecking the selected option in Excel Options.

unfortunately this isn't working for me permanently. It works in that specific workbook but then any other workbook it is the default again. So i have to do it every single time i use excel which is driving me insane.

That is not a workbook-level setting, it's application wide. If it isn't sticking then you may have some group policy resetting it, or a registry permissions issue.
