Research panel randomly pops up - how to DISABLE this unwanted feature ?

EXCEL does this randomly - slows the computer to a crawl - I have to close EXCEL and restart computer to get 10 minutes of work done in EXCEL...  HOW DOES ONE DISABLE forever, in all applications, ESPECIALLY EXCEL, this unwanted "RESEARCH"
feature ???
This is so annoying and I have found dozens of folks who have posted the same problem, but cure/fix has surfaced from MICROSOFT... 
Microsoft, are you listening ?  How do I stop  RANDOM  pop-ups in EXCEL  ??

Hi
I'm sorry to hear that the "research" feature annoyed you so much. Let me help you with the issue.
Go to File>Option>Trust Center>Trust Center Settings>Privacy Options>Cancel the selection "Allow the research pane to check for and install new service".
I have tried it in my computer, it worked well.
Some of our customers solve the problem by more methods below, we can also refer to it:
1.Add/Remove Programs ---> Microsoft Office ---> Add or Remove Features ---> expand Office Tools ---> disable Research Explorer Bar
2.Press Alt-F11 to open the VB Editor. Press Ctrl-G to open the Immediate Window.Type this line and press Enter:
Application.CommandBars("Research").Enabled = False

    Sounds like you got a store demo. Look in your settings and see if you see "Demo Mode/Demonstration Mode" or something similar.

    How to disable the vibration feature for the Alarm?

    Hi guys , because we have no answer to our issue how to take off the vibration when alarm is on , and our other profiles like ringtones, messages , reminders and so on we need to keep them on vibrate mode , the best solution is to install a free application from store called "alarmed " ; I did put it down on my phone and now i can use the alarm clock without any vibration at all ! That's the answer to our issue , before Apple is going to find a solution !
    Personally , I don't think is going to be fix it soon , as long as the apple script made for pop ups is general one !
    Good luck everyone

  • Can't use down key because it opens automator. Does any one know how to disable this short cut?

    Everytime I press down on down key it opens automator. It doesn't let me delete the app. I don't know what to do, it is very frustating to fill in a chart when I can't use the down key. Does any one know how to disable this short cut?

    Are you talking about the Down Arrow key? To my knowledge there is no way to use that key as a shortcut for anything. But look in the Keyboard section of System Preferences and the Keyboard shortcut tab.

  • Hi, All. Iam using Adobe Document Cloud. After saving a pdf document to this cloud, I am able to see my PC folders . How to disable this? Does my PC folders are also available across other PC's to access them with my Adobe ID? Please help me. Thanks

    Hi, All. Iam using Adobe Document Cloud. After saving a pdf document to this cloud, I am able to see my PC folders as well with a browsing option  . How to disable this? Does my PC folders will  also available across other PC's to access them with my Adobe ID? Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    Hi indi68632954,
    I can understand your concern & you need to worry about this, as your PC folders won't be available on other PC's as this option is just to browse through the files of the specific system on which you are working as shown in the screenshot below.
    Only the files uploaded on the Document cloud will be available over Internet using Adobe Document Cloud service upon the authentication of your Adobe ID & password.
    I hope this will answer your query.
    In case if you have any further query please let us know, we will be happy to assist you.
    Regards,

  • When I'm on an email FF stops me from linking to other pages/sites. Requires that I press Allow. This started recently. How do I disable this annoying feature?

    When I am reading an email that I received and want to follow a link in that email, FF prevents me from doing so. It shows a new pane informing me that FF has prevented me from following the link. If I click the "Allow" button in the upper left-hand corner, I am then linked through.
    This does not happen when I am on a particular website. In that case I have no trouble navigating the indicated links.
    FF Preferences does not give me a way to disable this annoying feature that slows me down.
    This problem started recently - possibly the last two weeks. It recurs whenever I use FF.
    How can I disable this annoying "feature"?

    You're welcome

  • What's a ASPNET user and how to disable this user by CMD ?

    What's a ASPNET user and how to disable this user by CMD ?
    I found a user named ASPNET on my computer. For security reasons I need to disable this user.
    There are hundreds of computer in my company.
    How can I disable this user ? By CMD or Domain Controller ?
    Additionally , if I disable ASPNET user ,what will affects on Windows 7 and Windows XP ?
    Thank you !

    back before IIS 6 or 7(I forgot), this ASP.NET user run ASP.NET application. If you have above IIS 6 or 7 you can simply delete this account
    but first, just confirm there is no user using this account to develop ASP.NET in your environment
    you can also reinstall your .NET framework to remove this user account
    this is the details

  • When typing Ff turns it into a foreign language automatically, how to disable this function?

    When typing in Ff turns it into a foreign language like chinese automatically,
    how to disable this function? I am copying and pasting from an outside source in order to fill this info in.
    == This happened ==

    Hi Stefan, thank you for replying, and sorry for the delay.
    Here is an example. https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=F3BF58EFEC14E64B!127&authkey=!ABhtu2udead5u-0&ithint=file%2cdocx
    It appears that OneDrive does not show this problem unless you select "edit document" then "edit in word". I have Word 07, and in there it causes the sloppy-looking, different indent sizes I am trying to fix.
    Thank you for any insights you may be able to share.

  • How to disable this Alarms?

    My two WAE have following alarms and donnot know how to clear it.
    A. core_dump sysmon core
    B. eth_bypass sysmon/eth2 InlinePort 1/1/wan
    eth_bypass sysmon/eth3 InlinePort 1/1/lan
    eth_bypass sysmon/eth4 InlinePort 1/0/wan
    eth_bypass sysmon/eth5 InlinePort 1/0/lan
    WAE - A : A Inline mode WAE.
    I have delfile /crash/* and reload WAE many times , but alarms still show on Central Manager.
    WAE - B : A Wccp mode WAE , and inline card donnot use for half year.one week age,central manager show this alarm,I know inline card 's four port is bypass.because is use wccp.How to disable this alarms.

    Hi Ivan,
    See if this helps:
    A: Is there anything in the following directories?
    /local1/core_dir/
    /local1/crash/
    If so, you will continue to get the Alarm until it's removed.
    B: Are you using WAAS 4.0.19? If so, your inline alarm might be CSCsl62873, which is fixed in 4.0.21 or 4.1.1 or remove the card if it's not being used.
    Hope that helps,
    Dan

    I think that you have turned on VoiceOver. To turn it off, enter settings, general, accessibility and turn off VoiceOver.

    You have an Accessibility feature turned on. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn off/check off:
    VoiceOver
    Speak Selection
    Speak Auto-text.

  • Permanently disable this security feature

    So I ask again in a very easy simple way: is there any possibility how I either can permanently disable this security feature which tell you "This Connection is Untrusted" through e.g. changing anything in about:config . Or, is there any way that this can be done easier, e.g. take IE or Chrome as an example. There you can pass this with max two mouse clicks.

    Thank you for your answer.
    Though I am (also) an IT Professional, so I do understand the problem why it appears. I can only speak for myself: we have a bunch of we based services we offer in our company. I do understand that the problem are not the websites, but it is me and my IT department that we did not implement our certificate in all web servers in a right. (yes, we will do this, it is in our pipeline...). However, I just see that it is easier with IE and Chrome to pass this security breach, what it isn't, as it is only our internal web services, some of them at least.
    However, so for me when i am testing applications it would be easier that it would be more user friendly with Firefox, like with Chrome and IE.
    So I guess the answer is NO then, that at the moment there is no other way to pass this security question.
    So, my feedback to Mozilla: even if the problem is somewhere else, please make it more user friendly on your side => less mouse clicks, and messages what a normal user also understands, like in Chrome....
    Thanks.

  • Will an iPhone automatically turn off location services.  If it goes below a certain battery power level, and so how you disable this in settings.

    I am working with Georgia DOT and we have created an app to track our state vehicles using IPhone 5. My question is: will an iPhone automatically turn off location services?  If it goes below a certain battery power level, and if so how do you disable this in settings.
    Message was edited by: mickyel

    I don't believe that this will happen, however, the entire iPhone will shut down when the iPhone reaches the auto-shutdown power level. There is no way to turn that Off other that connecting the iPhone to power.
