VBA - Application.ScreenUpdate - Becoming "True" at some point?

I have a code that runs for 5-20 seconds depending on how much data I import. With that imported data, I switch between sheets within the same workbook several times.

From what I have found, there are different methods for calling other sheets, some of which cause the Application.ScreenUpdate to change its value. I am using the following code to change sheets:
Rich (BB code):
Sheets("Temperature").Select

When I execute the macro, the ScreenUpdate = False works, then I see the "Temperature" sheet until the code ends. However, there are other Sheets("").select within the macro that doesn't seem to affect it.

Rich (BB code):
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
            
    'Unhide All Sheets
    For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    ws.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    Next ws
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Arrow").Visible = False
    
    
    Sheets("Collected Data").Select

           
            Set Pete1 = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
            With Pete1
                .InitialView = msoFileDialogViewDetails
                .InitialFileName = ThisWorkbook.Path
                .Filters.Add "Open File ", "*.txt", 1
                .ButtonName = "Import file"
                .Title = " Select .txt File for Import - Data"
                If .Show = -1 Then
                    FullPath = .SelectedItems(1)
            Else:
                    Sheets("Home").Select
                    Exit Sub
                End If
            End With
            With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
                "TEXT;" & FullPath, Destination:=Range("A1"))
            
...............
                End With
                    
            Selection.AutoFilter
            Selection.Columns.AutoFit
            With Selection
...............
            End With
            
            Range("A1").Select
            Range("C1:E1").Select
            Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
            Selection.Copy
            Range("A1").Select
            
            Sheets("Temperature").Select
            
            Range("E1").Select
            ActiveSheet.Paste
            Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
                Application.ScreenUpdating = False
                'Air Temp
                   
                Application.Run "ATPVBAEN.XLAM!Sample", ActiveSheet.Range("$E$2:$E$999999") _
               , ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2"), "P", 6, False

I believe the error is somewhere within the red area, but I cannot find it!

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
