The Secure Launch approach wraps your Excel workbook (XLSM or XLSB) into a Windows EXE or macOS APP file. It is functionally similar to Encrypted XLSM with security, performance and developer/user flexibility advantages.
Workbooks are stored in the Data Folder as XLSM or XLSB files with a secure, 256-bit encrypted Open password. The App silently applies the password during the secure launch process. A user can only open a workbook from the licensed App.
Primary Benefits:
- Faster, Streamlined Excel Open and Save Process
- Easier End-User Setup and Support
- App can Open Multiple Workbooks Concurrently
- App Requires Non-Exclusive use of Excel
- Retain User Saved Workbooks if Licensing Changes
Other Differences:
- Simplified Setup for Workbooks with Existing VBA
- Relaunch App to Present Open Data File Window Again
- Runtime Commands are Not Directly Supported
- App Hides Excel Menus and Ribbon on Windows
- Use the ExcelEdit tool to show the Ribbon
- Requires QuickLicense Pro 9.2 and OfficeProtect 5.0 or later
- User Requires Windows Excel 2016 or Mac Excel 2016 or later
