    Opening up Excel and csv files have a delay delay up to 30 seconds before opening

    I have a new PC using Office 2016

    My excel workbooks and csv files take 20-30 secs to open even small files

    I have disabled all my add-ins and problem still not resolved

    It would be appreciated if someone could assist me

    It could be your security provider causing the deleay. I know that mine slows the file opening process down because they check everything for virus and malware before allowing it to open. But I am not a techie, so it could be something else. Look for an alert bar on the monitor to see if it tells you that a scan is in process during the delay.
    Any code provided by me should be tested on a copy or a mock up of your original data before applying it to the original. Some events in VBA cannot be reversed with the undo facility in Excel.
