    Exclamation Excel 2016 Error: "Cannot Access the File" When Opening Workbook

    I get an error when opening excel and Enabling Content :

    1 - (We can't connect to 'link'. Please make sure you're using the correct web address).

    And when clicking ok:

    (Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'link'. There are several possible reasons:
    * The file name or path does not exist.
    * The file is being used by another program.
    * The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook.)


    I already tried to disable the add-ins also clean the Name Manager/Formulas/Objects references and links as described in the "LINK B" below.


    Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this issue?

    Welcome to the forum!

    Are you able to attach the workbook?
