Hi, I have been asked for my XLS PadLock User ID, which isn't in my registration email like they said it should be. "2. Change the value of the entry named xlspadlockuserid to your XLS Padlock user ID. This user ID is available in the registration email that you received...

If I install 3 workbooks on a clients’ PC all with the same App GUID & App Secret Key, does this mean that Workbook #1 will be able to open the saves from all 3 workbooks? And likewise with workbook #2 & #3? If that is the case, Should I make them all have different App GUID & App Secret Keys...

I have found through testing that the user can still open previous files with the updated workbook and they don’t reflect the updates. But the new save do. This serves my purposes.

Hi, I want to know more about “Cell Save & Restore”. I have read the manual, it is confusing on the subject. Is there perhaps a video or further resources available on the subject? My purpose is this: The original workbooks I send out to my clients never get data entered. They are immediately...

MMmm, I am just making a change to the original .xlsm file and want to send the customer his update. He has the .exe and the .xplapp as well. Do I need to replace only the .exe, or only the .xplapp, or both?

Same XPLAPP as well?

HI, How do I create an updated .exe file to send to my client? Can it be done using the same Master key & Activation key? Or same Master key and new Activation key? The workbook is currently installed and activated with a portable licence.

I successfully re-installed and activated the work books today and even made some save files. But next time trying to open them they are deactivated. What the hell is happening? They all had a 1 year expiration as the only limitation. Something I haven’t mentioned before is I am using generic...

I was using 2024.1 but updated yesterday to 2024.3 and have re-compiled the installation files and will be re-installing them today. hoping that fixes it. Another IT guy said it could be to do with the Windows 11 24H2 update.

Not sure? However, it seems to be something to do with the users’ computers. I have installed and activated it on two of my computers without any problem. Using the exact same files usb drives and master keys. I have been back and done a complete delete and re-install, but nothing changed still...

Hi, I just installed 3 workbooks on two different computers with USB dongle protection. The installation and activation went ok, but when I open any of the workbooks excel opens but with a black empty window. I am wondering if I may have done something that has caused this to happen? Because I...

Yeah, not comfortable doing that. I have come up with a solution though. So, thanks anyway for your help.

I have just had another go at it. This time no security issues. But it is not working. It’s not protecting the sheets on exiting the workbook. So, when I open it, they are already unlocked. Can you check the code works at your end please?

Not sure what you mean? Can you please explain in more detail? I do have several files that I want to use this in. And am using copies to test it with.

Yep, checked there first, attached is what was found. And if it makes a difference, I am on Win 10/64, Excel 365.

Hi and thanks, but it is not working for me. Please see screenshots. I have done exactly as instructed. Plus I went into the macro security settings and allowed everything but still the same result.

Hi, because I have the unlock function in the ribbon disabled after compile, I need code for users to be able to unlock certain sheets for editing. I would want the code to be executed through a form control I place on the page. Then to re-lock the sheet once the workbook is closed. Can someone...

Turns out it is 32 bit. Although on the about page in settings says 64bit. So I have been able to install it.

Trying to install XLS PL on my second computer, which is a Microsoft Surface Pro 5 with Win 10/64 bit. I try to install XLS but it tells me I can’t because I have a 32 bit OS and the installer is for 64 bit. However mt OS is actually 64 bit, and I have confirmed that in the settings. So why is...
