In Regedit (as admin), navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\Security.
Find or create the DWORD VBAWarnings:
Set value to 1 (Enable all macros without warnings—global for all files; use cautiously as it's less secure).
Alternative: Set to 2 (Disable with notification—prompts on open, but no per-file hassle; click "Enable Content" for trusted files)
