XL2BB Disappears when Excel is Reopened

[Peter_SSs]

If this happens to you, try these steps:

• Close Excel
• Find the Add-In file in Windows File Explorer
• Right click - Properties
• On the 'General' tab, is there an 'Unblock' box at the bottom?
• If so, tick that box then click OK
• Reopen Excel

An alternative to the above steps is to ensure that the Add-In file is in a 'Trusted Location' & then the status of the 'Unblock' checkbox should be irrelevant.

You're welcome Marcelo. It will take a while to get most of the bugs ironed out and for us to get used to just how the new forum works.

So you are saying that you were able to successfully use XL2BB and now you cannot? When (approximately) did you last use it successfully?

What version of Excel are you using and what operating system? Please update your Account details (click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

BTW, I have removed your other identical question as we do not want to have two sets of people trying to deal with the same issue - per rule #12 of the Forum Rules

Spoke to soon.
When i opened excel Mr Excel had disappeared and I ran into the same problem outlined here Message when excel opened
I deleted from Add-in and that solved that problem
However in trying to track down where xl2bb was I searched in my Temp files to find location

I see that this file was initially downloaded 5/4/20 so where I thought I had deleted previous version I had not.
Now I find that when I try and delete the delete X in home is unresponsive.
I can extract but am not sure what the outcome will be so any guidance on how to get rid of this file prior to reinstalling xl2bb appreciated
