Hello,

I have an excel sheet, that has several hyperlinks to file that are stored in a cloud (doc, xlsx, pdf ..etc). when I click the hyperlink is shows the file path, plus the below error message:

some files can contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your computer.
it is important to be certain that this file is from a trustworthy source.
would you like to open this file?
When I click Ok, the office files are opening normally, but the pdf files prompt me to save or save as, while I want open!I have tried the solution mentioned in this post: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...ice-2016/95be3b0e-4a08-4092-ad8b-2ba105770e7a

But still receiving the same error message; I have also added the site as trusted sites in my IE, but still receiving the same error.
Note:
I am currently operating with Windows 10 and Office 2016.
Your support will be much appreciated.
Regards​

Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
