I have a macro that downloads a .xlsm file and runs it. This has worked well for over a year until about 6 weeks ago, but now it downloads basicly an empty file. When I run the download link in the browser a screen requiring to confirm download now pops up :(

I am using URLDownloadToFile() in VBA

Office 365

Windows PC - Windows 11 & Windows 10

Thanks for any help in advance

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
