How to get rid of ".xlsx is now available for editing"

Try this:

1. Check for Multiple Instances: Ensure that the Excel file is not being opened by another instance of Excel or another user. This can cause the file to be locked and trigger the pop-up.
2. Use Shared Workbooks: If multiple users or processes need to access the file simultaneously, consider using Excel's shared workbook feature. This allows multiple users to make changes to the workbook at the same time.
3. Disable Alerts in VBA: If you're using VBA for automation, you can disable alerts to prevent pop-ups from interrupting your script. Add the following line at the beginning of your VBA code:Application.DisplayAlerts = FalseRemember to re-enable alerts at the end of your script:Application.DisplayAlerts = True
4. Check File Permissions: Ensure that the file permissions on the remote server allow your bot to access and modify the file without restrictions.
5. Use a Different File Format: Sometimes, using a different file format like .xlsb (Excel Binary Workbook) can help reduce the occurrence of such pop-ups.
6. Automate Pop-up Handling: If the pop-up still appears, you might need to add a step in your automation script to handle the pop-up. This can be done using tools like AutoHotkey or Power Automate to detect and close the pop-up automatically.
