Hyperlink warning message

[Musiclover]

Good afternoon one and all,

This is driving me mental.

I have multiple .mp3 files on an external hard dive in various folders. I have created hyperlinks on an excel spreadsheet to open them. When I click on any one I get a warning message telling me that some files are harmful, Can I disable this warning message as the files are all ok.

I have searched the internet and tried many regedit options, non worked for me.

I have made the drive a trusted location and ticked the subfolders box, still getting the warning message.

I can open an excel workbook that is on the hard drive with no warning message

Any help greatly appreciated

Does this help ? Disable “These files might be harmful to your computer” on Windows - Linglom.com

Hello Logit,

Thanks for your two links, the first one seems to be for internet files which is not the issue i am trying to solve. The second seems to be the usual regedit run through I have tried al sorts of options on this but to no avail.

The more I look into this the more it seems it cannot be done. I even contacted Microsoft but gave up after being "on hold" for 40 mins.

Thanks again for you replies and offers though, seems like I might need to wait for yet another windows update
