Hello

We have a very popular game we play at our workplace called bubble shooter.
However after the company has updated to windows 10 and excel 365 the game no longer works.

When I run the compatibility checker it says "Uninitiated activex controls can not be transferred to the selected file format"
I have turned activex controls on and also macros.

Is there anything I can do to get this game working again?
any help appreciated

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Thanks for the reply

Unfortunately no message bar comes up to enable the activex controls?

In that case you may have to change the Trust Center settings !!
File >> Options>> Trust center>>trust center settings>>Message Bar>> Show Message bar.
AND
File >> Options>> Trust center>>trust center settings>>Active X settings>> enable all controls

BUT..

I'd make sure IT are aware of what you are doing, there are risks involved in doing this

Both of those options are enabled

Unfortunately looks as though it is just not compatible with the new version of 365.
