      Protecting your data starts with a powerful shield: a complex unbreakable password. Avoid weak, guessable options like birthdays or pet names - instead, forge a diverse mix of upper/lower characters, numbers and symbols, creating a maze hackers can't navigate. Remember, strong passwords are the gatekeepers of your information; invest in their complexity for peace of mind and impenetrable security.
      Re-enter the password and click OK to confirm
      Save the sheet and close the file
