    How to remove these messages?

    I'm the sole user of this PC and so don't want to get messages like these. So I'd much appreciate advice on the steps I need to take in Excel 365 / 2016 to prevent them please. Must admit I found the F1 Help hard to follow.

    For the first, go to:

    File/Options/Trust Centre/Trust Centre Settings

    and uncheck the "Remove personal information...." box.

    For the second, this can be done, but I don't recommend it. Macros can contain malicious code that can damage your PC. IMO it is no bad thing to get a reminder to think about where the file came from BEFORE you enable macros. Once they're enabled, it's too late.

    you can review/choose the options in Trust centre/Macro settings

    Thanks Glenn, I'll try both.

    Edit: That first did the trick, thanks. The second hasn't re-occurred yet.
