Hello everyone,

For the past few days, Excel has refused to operate the ActiveX buttons, regardless of the file:

It’s impossible to click on them.
No right-clicking is possible.

When I open the files on another computer, everything works fine.

I think this is related to Excel or this computer. These are files I use every day, and I don’t remember changing any settings in Excel.

Here is an example file:

But it’s quite possible that it works perfectly for you...

Thank you for your help.

Configuration: Windows Vista / Chrome 39.0.2171.95

It's due to the automatic update of Microsoft Office 2010.
You need to go to Control Panel ==> Programs ==> Programs and Features ==> Click on View installed updates ==> Look for the line "Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2010 32-Bit Edition", right-click on it and then Uninstall.
You will need to restart the computer and it will work like before.

Hello,

That's right, check this out too, there's no need to restart the PC, you just need to remove one update:

Thank you all for your responses.
I have to step out, but the problem seems to come from there.

I am using Office 2007, and for the Microsoft Office Service Pack 3 (SP3) update, uninstallation is not offered in the control panel.
I will look into the proposed solutions and keep you updated.

Indeed, everything is working again.
I uninstalled the following update:
Security Update for Microsoft Office 2007 suites (KB2596927)

I'm disabling Windows automatic updates for now!

Thank you again for your quick response!
