Hi guys,

My file pops up an error msg every time I refresh it says can't find the external file used, but actually, I don't have any formula or table linking to that file --

I have checked:

and
2.

None of these involves the file the error msg mentioned.

I do find the file in Existing Connections, circled them in red:

But neither can I delete them nor open them.

Is there any way I can remove these connections and get rid of the annoying error msg when I refresh my workbook?


Thanking you!
