InitializationCellWarning

InitializationCellWarning is an option for notebooks that determines if a warning should be given when a notebook containing initialization cells is opened.

With the default setting InitializationCellWarning True, a warning in the form of a dialog box is given, asking the user to choose if the initialization cells should be automatically evaluated.

In order for the warning not to occur, this option must be set to False both in the notebook being opened and at the global level. This is a security feature to prevent a notebook from silently evaluating cells without the user's knowledge (unless the user has specifically enabled this by setting the option False at the global level).
