Timer loop in one workbook disables other workbooks from being edited

Hello,

Currently, I have a userform that runs a timer upon clicking 'Start' and stops once 'Stop' is pressed. Once stopped, another userform asking for additional information about the timed session will display and be recorded onto the Excel sheet. My problem is that when the timer is running, users cannot edit other workbooks that they have open. Does anybody have another way of doing this that would allow users to edit other workbooks while this loop is running? Here is the code for it:

Dim dteStart As Date, dteFinish As Date
    Dim dteStopped As Date, dteElapsed As Date
    Dim boolStopPressed As Boolean, boolResetPressed As Boolean
    
Private Sub btnReset_Click()
    dteStopped = 0
    dteStart = 0
    dteElapsed = 0
    Label1 = "0:00:00"
    boolResetPressed = True
End Sub

Private Sub btnStart_Click()
btnstart.Enabled = False
btnstop.Enabled = True
Start_timer:
    dteStart = time
    boolStopPressed = False
    boolResetPressed = False
Timer_Loop:
    DoEvents
    dteFinish = time
    dteElapsed = dteFinish - dteStart + dteStopped
    If Not boolStopPressed = True Then
        Label1 = WorksheetFunction.Text(dteElapsed, "[h]:mm:ss")
        If boolResetPressed = True Then GoTo Start_timer
        GoTo Timer_Loop
    Else
        Exit Sub
    End If

End Sub

Private Sub btnStop_Click()
    ActiveWorkbook.Save
    ManualReportUF2.Show
    boolStopPressed = True
    dteStopped = dteElapsed
    Call btnReset_Click
    btnstart.Enabled = True
    btnstop.Enabled = False
    Call UserForm_Initialize
    ActiveWorkbook.Save

End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
    Label1 = "0:00:00"
    btnstop.Enabled = False
End Sub
