I have a spreadsheet (.xlsm) that is suddenly not working properly. When I try to open it, it opens briefly, and then closes. When I try again to open it, I get a message about opening Excel in safe mode. If I select No, the spreadsheet opens, and says it has been repaired. If I click to see what was repaired, I get this:
"Excel was able to open the file by repairing or removing the unreadable content.
Removed Feature: Object from /xl/workbook.xml part (Workbook)
Removed Feature: OLE Control Extension from /xl/workbook.xml part (Workbook)
Lost ActiveX controls."
The spreadsheet has ActiveX buttons that need to be usable.
I tried repairing Microsoft 365, but this didn't help. Is there anything else I can try? I have a backup of the spreadsheet, but when I try to open it, the same thing happens.
Thanks.
