blank excel sheet appears when starting computer
"Bing" has a few responses to questions like yours:
The issue is certainly with Windows 10, but it is not just a "glitch," rather it is a misguided "feature." That is probably why Microsoft has not "fixed" it. Windows 10 tries to save your "session" so if you frequently open Word, Excel or Chrome, it tries to save you a step by opening it for you. Annoying? Yes. Let me open it if I want to open it. So by looking to disable this "feature," I ran across this site: https://pureinfotech.com/stop-apps-restarting-automatically-windows-10/Instructions say:
Open Settings
Click on Accounts.
Click on Sign-in options.
Under “Privacy,” turn off the Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart toggle switch.
Alternately: Go to Start > Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options. Under Privacy, turn the second setting On if you want to use your sign-in info to automatically finish setting up your device after an update or restart.
Thank you very much for the advice - it was happening every time but the last three times it hasn't done it! but if it happens again i will give that a go.
