Microsoft blocks my own Macro Based Files.
Hi, Excel Tech Team. I have Excel Files that have Macros applied with my software and once shared to my students or downloaded from my website there is an error "Microsoft has blocked Macros from running the because source of file is untrusted. These are the files which are designed and developed by me for the use of students globally. These do not carry any such codes which are harmful. All business related codes commonly used. Earlier i used ask my students to unblock the same from file properties, even that is not available now. The students follow the instructions to enable the Macros but still it shows the error. So how my problem can be solved?

Thanks. It is quite disturbing when you see your own created Macro based files are being blocked. It is just an unnecessary step. What do you say?
