Hello,
I am getting an error message "Run-time Error '-2147023179 (800706b5)': Automations Error The interface is unknown", when running the below Macro. The Macro was working then stopped working. Any solutions?

Extract_Data Macro
'

Dim ie As Object
Dim doc As MSHTML.HTMLDocument
Dim tables As MSHTML.IHTMLElementCollection
Dim table As MSHTML.HTMLTable
Dim clipboard As MSForms.DataObject

Set ie = New InternetExplorer

'Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

With ie
.Visible = True
.navigate (ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Reference Page").Range("B1").Value)

While ie.READYSTATE <> 4 - This is where the error occurs
DoEvents
Wend


Set doc = .document
Set tables = doc.getElementsByTagName("table")
Set table = tables(0)
Set clipboard = New MSForms.DataObject

clipboard.SetText table.outerHTML
clipboard.PutInClipboard
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Confirmed Cases Global").Paste
.Quit
End With



Set ie = Nothing
Set ie = New InternetExplorer
With ie
.Visible = True
.navigate (ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Reference Page").Range("B2").Value)

While ie.READYSTATE <> 4
DoEvents
Wend


Set doc = .document
Set tables = doc.getElementsByTagName("table")
Set table = tables(0)
Set clipboard = New MSForms.DataObject

clipboard.SetText table.outerHTML
clipboard.PutInClipboard
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Confirmed Death Cases Global").Paste

.Quit
End With
Set ie = Nothing
Set ie = New InternetExplorer
With ie
.Visible = True
.navigate (ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Reference Page").Range("B3").Value)

While ie.READYSTATE <> 4
DoEvents
Wend


Set doc = .document
Set tables = doc.getElementsByTagName("table")
Set table = tables(0)
Set clipboard = New MSForms.DataObject

clipboard.SetText table.outerHTML
clipboard.PutInClipboard
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Recovered Cases Global").Paste

.Quit
End With
Set ie = Nothing

Set ie = New InternetExplorer
With ie
.Visible = True
.navigate (ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Reference Page").Range("B4").Value)

While ie.READYSTATE <> 4
DoEvents
Wend


Set doc = .document
Set tables = doc.getElementsByTagName("table")
Set table = tables(0)
Set clipboard = New MSForms.DataObject
