I have used protect sheet for years just to stop people changing things.
All of a sudden when i choose protect sheet ( with no password ) it works
If i enter a password it asks for it again then a small blank explorer window pops up and excel freezes
can only be cleared with ctrl / alt / del
Any assistance please this is driving me mad
have reinstalled office 365 still the same
is happening on existing sheets and new ones.
