| Jul 10, 2015 at 7:12 | comment | added | Unbelievable | @Kuba, and@Szabolcs, Actually, As long as I had changed my codes and had written them, I have saved all of them on my Desktop. Yesterday, I just opened the last one (previously myself changed), when I saw the message, I did not run that and I have searched what happened. | |
| Jul 10, 2015 at 7:05 | comment | added | Szabolcs | What this message means: Any notebook containing Dynamic stuff is potentially dangerous. That's because when you open such a notebook, code might be automatically run without user interaction. Someone could send you a notebook that will automatically delete all files from your hard drive when you open it. Mathematica does not know who created a notebook, so it displays the warning whether it's your notebook or a foreign one that you opened. There's a the "trusted path" functionality (see answer) to ameliorate this inconvenience. | |

| Jul 10, 2015 at 6:51 | comment | added | Unbelievable | Yes, I read it. But I did not expect that I see this massage on my own code, my interpretation, of that was: another files are active and I was worried about that. Although, my question is remained that why after one month from putting my files on untrusted path, mathematica warned me. | |
