Remove Excel opening window (Excel 2016) - excel

To my knowledge, this question hasn't been asked before.
If it has, then sorry for the redundance.
I am using Windows 10 and Excel 2016. What I want to do is :
When I open Excel, a green pop-up window is displayed for a few seconds, showing "Office 365", the Microsoft logo, and a loading menu.
Question > Do you think this menu can be removed, or replaced by some other image ?
Thanks a lot !
Best Regards

the menu can be removed: go to options excel -> accessibility (above advanced) -> startscreen...

Height difference among taskpanes in Excel Online

Problem Description:
Taskpanes of an add-in may have different height in Excel Online, as a consequence, content may be hidden on the bottom.
My Environment:
System: windows 10
Browser: Chrome
How to Reproduce:
Open Excel Online in chrome, then open two addin taskpanes first (for example: Script Lab).
hide them all, then click to open any one of them, you can see the shown taskpane's height is 660px. the hidden one's height is 770px.
(In the above picture, for distincting the height difference, I hide all the taskpanes -> open Taskpane 1 -> show Taskpane 1 in the end.)
following Step 1, don't hide the opened taskpane, just click the tab of the hidden taskpane and let it show, you will see the height of two taskpane all become 710px, which is beyond our visual height (it should be 660px).
(In the above picture, to distinguish the height difference, I hide all the taskpanes -> then open Taskpane 2 -> open Taskpane 1 -> show Taskpane 1 in the end.)
As you can see in these two pictures, the height difference leads to content overflow in Picture 2 on the bottom, the footer disappears.
I don't know how to write my addin's css to let it work as normal. Even in the Script Lab official add-in, it's still a problem.
It seems that the problem does not come from Excel add-ins; it should be fixed in Excel Online. Could any one give some help? Thanks very much!
This indeed seems to be a bug in the Excel Online platform (and we have a tracking bug for it in Script Lab as well, https://github.com/OfficeDev/script-lab/issues/382#issuecomment-444013605). Let me ping some folks on that team to see if there is an update on this...

excel vba code password protected would not disappear

I have opened an excel file containing VBA password protected (not belonging to me) and from that moment on what happens is that the code remains in the VBA editor even if I close ALL the files (see atteched pic)
Such filed was called treelist and in the VBA editor "solver.XLMA"
Put in other words. Whatever excel of mine I opened now with or without vba code once I click "editor" the first thing I see is that "solver.XLMA" that I can not access nor delete. It is really anoying because I dont know what this code is doing.
(note: yes, I closed excel several times and opened it again. solver.xlma was still there)
As you see in the picture the "solver.xlma" stais even if I close all the excel workbooks.
Some idea of how can I get rid of it and what is going on here?
thx
It is a solver add-in. To turn it off:
Click the File tab, click Options, and then click the
Add-Ins category.
In the Manage box, click Excel Add-ins, and then click Go. The Add-Ins dialog box appears.
In the Add-Ins available box, clear the check box next to the add-in that you want
to deactivade (Solver), and then click OK.
This is the answer:
That's the Solver Add-In. Go to File > Options > Add-Ins, then click Go beside "Manage Excel Add-ins". Uncheck the Solver Add-in and hit Ok

Excel 2016 restart itself when I try recording a macro

I wanted to make a Macro in Excel 2016 (under Win 10). I chose the "Record Macro" button. After opening the floating window and making a name for the macro, I click on the "OK" button. After that, the Excel goes to hang mode.
on the other hand, the button "Use Relative Reference" in Developer menu does not work and it's highlight always.
Shortly, I can not make a Macro in Excel 2016 under Win 10, any advice is appreciated.
Thanks Guys ...
I found the solution to this issue! ... I did a click on the "Reference ..." in VBA Developer in Excel and I get this message: Unrecognised Project Language then I went to the Regional Setting and I cleaned up (uncheck) the Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 ... Now the VBA work correctly.

Excel Ribbon Custom Add-in tab

We have an excel add-in that has generated it's own tab (for years - since at least Excel 2007) and put it's icons in place -
But now we are trying to make it work with Excel 2016 and have into a strange one
Instead of putting it in out custom tab named 'ourTabName" and putting in large icons, it is installing in a tab called "Add-ins" and using small icons.
Does anyone know if something changed with 2016, and how we fix this?

Excel 2007 Visual Basic Editor: eats spaces, throws cursor around

I can't resolve this issue, I found a similar question here but:
setting the workbook to Manual calculation (alt-m-x-m or alt-t-o>formulas) didn't work
Setting editor options to disable: Auto syntax check & Background compile didn't work
anybody have any idea how to fix this very annoying behaviour, I'm used to quickly pop up VBA (alt-f11), f7 to get into code and write some quick procedures there... and it's hard to get out of that habit, I don't want to write any office extension to just add a single quote to every cell in the range
For Each rg In Selection
rg = chr(39) & rg.value
Next
F5, done...
I had this exact problem and the following worked for me.
1.Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options
2.Click the Add-Ins category
3.In the Manage box, click COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
4.Look for an add in called 'Load Test Report AddIn' then uncheck it
5.restart excel
This addin is installed with VS2010 Beta2
I'm using excel 2010 and face similar problem. When I hit space bar, editor removes the space and put cursor to end of last character. Tried unchecking add-in coms without resolution.
"In Excel 2010, toggling Design Mode button on the Developer Ribbon Tab solves the problem for me."
Or in vba editor, CLICK on Design Mode button (icon with pencil) to enter design mode. From the Run menu, select "Design Mode".
Got it from this link:

Winword VBA IDE works fine, so it's only in Excel for the moment.
I have tried re-installing, I have tried the Excel options > Resources > diagnostic tool which reported that it fixed 1 issue but the problem remained.
The problem effectively seems to be that the Visual Basic Editor compiles every second (or less) and removes spaces.
An ugly work around is to put a single quote after your cursor and it won't remove the spaces, but that's just silly.
I'm currently waiting for the Office 2007 Enterprise "Change" > "Repair" to finish & test it again, else I'm going to stick with the single quote.
I've hit this issue too, and for me it was related to an Excel add-in which would explain why you're not seeing it in the Word VBE. Try going into the trust center and disabling all application add-ins - if that fixes it, then you can work out which is going wrong by a process of elimination. In my case, it was the Load Test Report Addin which installs with VS2010 beta 2.
I've had this problem recently with Excel 2010. Toggling Design mode didn't work and I didn't have the 'Load Test Report Add-In'. However, I had a couple of other Add-Ins and it was one of those (Jive for Office) that was causing the issue.
So in 2010 you should go to File>Options>Add-Ins. At the bottom of the dialog box in 'Manage' select 'COM Add-Ins' and click Go. See what's in there and unselect each in turn. For me, the result was instant - I didn't even have to restart Excel.
