This project contains links to one or more data sources

Apparently at some point you or someone else created imbedded links to the Project file. It could have been a hyperlink, the file was part of a master/subproject structure, a resource pool/sharer structure, or had cross-project links to another file, or perhaps had an imbedded image. Lots of possibilities.
Also, the fact that your file is also much larger than your other similar files indicates there may be corruption. I suggest you try each of the methods in the following Wiki article.

This is an older post so it's not totally clear exactly what "this problem" is in your case. I suggest you re-post as a new question and fully explain the issue.

Hi John
Every time I open an MS P file, I get the following error. This does not happen when my colleague tries to open the same files:
"This project contain slinks to one or more data sources that may be unsafe or have been disabled ...."

I just saw the release notes for the March 30 update (current channel) and it mentions a fix for this issue. The March 30 release is:
Version 2203 (Build 15028.20160 CTR).

- search C:\users in predecessor or successor columns and delete them.
It should be resolved. - David1979,
That's not much information to go on.
1. Where are the files stored?
2. Do the files have any hyperlinks?
3. Do the files have external predecessors/successors?
4. Are the files part of a linked structure (i.e. master/subproject or resource pool/sharer file)?
5. What version of Project do you have and what version does your colleague have?
6. Did you try the methods listed in the Wiki article I mentioned in my original response on this thread?
