    I have sadly got a pc set to receive automatic updates and ever since last
    Friday my excel shortcuts do not work and I cannot open excel files sent as
    email attachments. Up to Friday I have not had any problems but since then I
    can only open excel files by going through the full file path process. If I
    try any shortcut windows cannot find the correct path. Does anyone know a
    solution, or is there a way to undo the updates and get my pc back to its
    pre-16Oct state? Using Vista operating system and Microsoft Office suite.

    Have you tried System Restore, choosing one of the " pre-Oct16 " dates as
    your restore point ?

    Also, have you tried to delete the current Excel shortcut and re-create a
    new one ?
