MC289724 – Microsoft is introducing a change to the Excel Trust Center Macro settings to provide a more secure experience for users by default. This new default behavior will disable Excel 4.0 macros.
Note: Users who have already configured this setting or have a group policy configuration in place will not be affected by this change.
Key points
How this will affect your organization:
The setting Enable XLM macros when VBA macros are enabled will now be unchecked by default, thus disabling XLM macros. This change is limited to end-users who have not yet configured this macro setting or who do not have a group policy configured by their tenant admins.
What you need to do to prepare:
There is no required action from tenant admins.
