Is this when you run excel or when you try and open a document?

Sounds like a permissions issue:

 

  1. Right click on the email attachment and select "Save all attachments" to save the file to disk
  2. Right click on the saved file, click on Properties and click the option Unblock and then try to open the file

Run excel

Click File > Options > Trust Center >Trust Center Settings > and un-tick all three options about "protected view".

Try unchecking the last box - you can always check it again later

 

"Check documents that are from a link etc"

I'm sorry, but I've no more ideas - I've tried every known fix. I would suggest you get your PC checked for malware next http://www.geekstogo...alware-removal/

 

It may well be something nasty is stopping you opening it.

If you encounter excel error message, you can save your data in a new Excel document or discard the changes and repair the original document.
