Thanks, now i try to install again Mathematica 11.3.1 and test if I have the same problem with ExcelLink 3.7.1

If the problem is the same , than it is a Microsoft patch problem.

What issues are you seeing? If you have error messages, can you post them here?

A recent Windows update had a defect which affected ExcelLink (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4511553/windows-10-update-kb4511553), and it is possible you're running into that issue. It is my understanding that Microsoft is going to release a patched update in the very near future (if they have not already).

For further troubleshooting, I would recommend contacting Wolfram Technical Support (support@wolfram.com) as they're best equipped to assist here.

I have used the following powershell commands to stop auto update in Windows 10 :

> New-Item -Path HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows -Name WindowsUpdate -Force
> New-Item -Path HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate -Name AU -Force
> Set-Itemproperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU -Name NoAutoUpdate -Value 1 -Type DWord

Now restart the computer

> shutdown -r -t 05

But is not working , Windows 10 always install kb4511553 , blocking ExcelLink communications with Mathematica 12.0
