Hi,

I have an .xlsm file which has a module, it's been working fine for a while. I just saved it and then tried to open it and now I keep on receiving this "Can't find project or library" message all of sudden. Then if I try to open this same exact file on a different PC it works fine. Also, other co-workers don't have any issues opening this file.

I tried to follow the steps listed in the link below but I can't access the "References" screen so can't check on the check box.


I don't understand why this file opens up properly on a different PC but all of sudden having this issue on my work PC which never showed this error before?

Thank you!

Not everything I do at work revolves around Excel. Only the fun parts.
On the PC I can open the file properly on, I ended up saving the file as an .xlsx, removing the macro, and then I added it back and saved it as an .xlsm. I then opened this file on the PC that was giving me issues and it was working for a bit but then I opened again and get the same "Can't find project or library" message again.
