Isn't this a simple Find and Replace?

Find what: [*]
Replace:

Replace with nothing

It may be easier to use Text to Columns with delimiter option Other "[" to split the text out into columns to keep/delete

 

[Tim_Excel_]

On Error Resume Next
With Workbooks("NAME").Worksheets("NAME") 'change

For each Cell in .Range("A1:A1500") 'change
If err.number = 0 Then
charn = Instr(1, Cell.Value, "[")
Cell.Value = Left(Cell.Value, Len(Cell.Value)-(Len(Cell.Value)-charn))

End if
Next Cell

End With

This code does assume that there is no text that needs to be saved after the first "[", so take that in mind. If this is a wrong assumption, let me know

It seems the bracketed text is always at the end of the cell so you could use:

=TRIM(LEFT(A1,IFERROR(FIND("[",A1)-1,LEN(A1))))
