How do I prevent a spreadsheet called PERSONAL from opening when I open Excel?

Question

After I learned about macros, a document called PERSONAL always opens up when I open Excel. There is nothing in the XLSTART folder. What is wrong?

Answer 1

You might have put a shortcut to one of your macros
This file is for the view of your file.
You can search for that file in C: drive, rename it and see what you lost.
If you lost alot, you can rename it back and continue using it

Answer 2

Under file properties, find out the location of PERSONAL, remove it.
