Question

How to suppress / automate a response to the 'Microsoft Excel has stopped working' dialogue box shown below? I already have disabled autosave for the WB in question. I'd like to bypass the dialogue box and immediately initiate the auto-restart. If the box hangs around for long enough (more than an hour?) i think it does actually restart, but I'm for a way to do this immediately.

Was it helpful?

Solution

You can't do that by design, as you can lose precious data when a program gets force-shutdown. Defaulting to doing this as soon as windows notices the program failing is not possible, but if it would help you can disable the pop-up using this guide.
