Through some research and trial and error, I was able to come across this basic VBA that is helping me rename a large list of file attachments. I have been able to rename a few dozen attachments but I run into the run-time error ’53: File Not Found.’ Is there a way to modify the VBA to skip over the file names that cannot be found?
Sub RenameFiles()
Const strPath = "C:Documents and SettingsUserMy DocumentsFolderName"
Dim r As Long
Dim n As Long
n = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For r = 2 To n
Name strPath & Cells(r, 1) As strPath & Cells(r, 2)
Next r
End Sub

Error handling is disabled with this statement:
On Error Resume Next
To enable error handling again you have to use this statement:
On Error Goto 0
It’s good practice to disable error handling only for the statements where you realy want to skip the error. On the other side enabling and disabling the error handling may slow doen your code. In that case you can place it arount the loop.
On Error Resume Next
For r = 2 To n
Name strPath & Cells(r, 1) As strPath & Cells(r, 2)
Next r
On Error Goto 0

Add the following line at the top of your subroutine:
On Error Resume Next
This statement does exactly what it says, it ignores the error and moves on to the next line of code.
You need to use caution when using this statement as it does not fix the error. For your current issue, it should be fine, but in many others you’ll need to handle the error instead of ignoring it.
A good resource to get the basics is Error Handling in VBA.
If you want to learn more about Excel VBA, brettdj’s answer to What is the best way to master VBA macros is a great place to start.
To see how errors are affected by On Error Resume Next or On Error GoTo 0, step through the following in your VBA Editor:
Sub ExcelVBAErrorDemo()
Dim forceError As Integer
' ignore errors
On Error Resume Next
' cause an error
forceError = 1 / 0
' the error was ignored, and the integer variable will
' display its default value
MsgBox "Our forceError variable = " & forceError
' turn default error handling behavior back on
On Error GoTo 0
' now we'll get a run-time error
forceError = 1 / 0
End Sub

Better than On Error Resume Next (in my opinion) is to check for specific/anticipated errors and handle them appropriately. In this case, you can check to see if a filename is valid, and skip the Name assignment if it is not valid.
Check to see if it’s a valid filename using Dir() function:
Sub RenameFiles()
Const strPath = "C:Documents and SettingsUserMy DocumentsFolderName"
Dim sFile as String
Dim r As Long
Dim n As Long
n = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For r = 2 To n
sFile = strPath & Cells(r,1)
If Not Dir(sFile) = vbNullString Then
Name sFile As strPath & Cells(r, 2)
End If
Next r
End Sub

Since I installed Big Sur, I have run into this problem every time I open a document using Word or a worksheet using Excel or a slide show in PowerPoint:
Run-time error '53':
File not found: Library/Application
Support/Adobe/MACPDFM/MacPDFM.framework/Versions/A/MacPDFM
This is very annoying, as I have to dismiss this window up to four times in a row every time I open a document on these Microsoft Office applications. I searched everywhere, including the official Microsoft website, macOS tip websites, but the information was incomplete, obsolete and did not offer a practical solution.
Does anyone know how to fix this really annoying problem?

After looking really hard for a solution, I finally found in a very obscure page the answer, which is quite simple and works with the latest Microsoft Word on Big Sur:
- Close all Office applications
- Go to /Users/your-user-name-here/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word
- If the Library folder is initially hidden, press the “Command” + “Shift” + “.” (period) keys at the same time to display it.
- Remove linkCreation.dotm
- Restart Word and problem solved
Unfortunately that does not solve the problem for PowerPoint or Excel because if I remove SaveAsAdobePDF.ppam inside the PowerPoint folder or the SaveAsAdobePDF.xlam inside the Excel folder will trigger another error on application launch.
To fix these errors, you need to:
- Remove the SaveAsAdobePDF.ppam and SaveAsAdobePDF.xlam from the PowerPoint and Excel folders next to the Word folder.
- Launch Excel and PowerPoint and go to the menu Tools -> Excel Add-ins… and Tools -> PowerPoint Add-ins…, respectively, and remove the Save as Adobe PDF add-in, by unckecking it and removing it with the “-” button and then click OK.
- Restart Excel and PowerPoint and the problem should go away. If not, try several times to remove those options from the Tools menu until the problem goes away. I had to repeat this procedure in PowerPoint until this got fixed.

There’s a much easier way:
- Open Word
- On the top of your Mac taskbar, click “Tools”
- Click on “Templates and Add-ins…” at the bottom
- Under Global Templates and Add-ins, selected the item “linkCreation.dotm”
- Clicked the little (-) button to delete the item
- Restarted MS Word and the problem should be resolved

Thank you, terminal command line in William Lai’s answer worked! In case helpful for others, the only thing different for me was that 2 of the directories were appended with “.localized”.
/Users/your-user-name/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content.**localized**/Startup.**localized**/Word

So far none of the above has worked for me. Worse, the dialog appears to come up on a hidden window, so I have to:
- mouse to the Dock
- locate Microsoft Word (small icon)
- right click on the Microsoft Word
- select Show all windows
- navigate to the crude dialog (looks like something I saw in 1987)
- click END
- Repeat between 4 and 8 times for every document opened
answered Jun 20, 2022 at 22:22
Open Terminal and paste the following:
cd '~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/' && rm Word/linkCreation.dotm && rm PowerPoint/SaveAsAdobePDF.ppam && rm Excel/SaveAsAdobePDF.xlam && open '/Applications/Microsoft PowerPoint.app' '/Applications/Microsoft Excel.app'
Hit enter, then in the windows that open (Excel and PowerPoint) click on the menu bar entry ‘Tools’, and in the drop-down, respectively ‘Excel Add-ins…’ and ‘PowerPoint add-ins…’. In each program, select the entry ‘Save as Adobe PDF’ and click on the - button. Click on OK.

I have another Excel spreadsheet that pulls data from a folder full of TXT documents.Seven days worked last Friday. Nothing happened. This week, Monday, I get “53”: The file with the error was not found.
The interesting thing is that when I select “Debug” the line of return code is highlighted, mine, and when I put the computer in the “sFile” variable, it shows me the name of the lodge, which they don’t. I think I can find it. … however, he could only know the name of the company if he met it … And I checked that it is applicable.
The data .txt files were in the Documents Loma h: my CW3 Reports Product Statistics

As mentioned above, when I debug the code and hover over “sFile” at the “Open sFile for Input As # 1” line, it tells me:
sFile = "PR20180912T153019.txt"
Which it can only learn if it reads the folder successfully as I try not to hardcode any of these performer artists.
I tried to delete this file by renaming the main file to a word containing the word “apple” and making sure that it was originally read-only (not). I’m in the know here because it worked even though it was last week and has definitely changed since I approved and tried it this week.

Excel VBA — Run-time error ’53’: File not found. But file was found
I have an Excel sheet that pulls data from a folder full of .txt documents. Last week Friday, it worked. Nothing changed. This week Monday, I get a Run-time error ’53’: File not found.
What’s interesting, is that when I click «Debug» it highlights a line in my code, and when I mouse over the ‘sFile’ variable, it tells me the name of the file that it apparently can’t find. but it could only know the name of it if it found it. And yes, I’ve verified, that file does exist.
The Excel sheet is in H:My DocumentsLoma CW3 Reports
The data .txt files are in H:My DocumentsLoma CW3 ReportsProduct Statistics
The first 3 files that it should be pulling are:
Like mentioned above, when I’m debugging the code and mouse-over «sFile» in the line «Open sFile For Input As #1», it tells me:
Which it could only know if it was successfully scanning the folder since I don’t hardcode any of those file names in.
I have tried removing that file, renaming the file to a word like ‘apple’, checked to see if it became read-only (nope). I’m thrown for a loop here, because it worked as is last week, and nothing changed from when I opened it up this week and tried it.
