Hyperlink insert crashes Office 2016 & Windows 10 Creators Update

Anonymous

Hi,

After a lot of searching, I still cannot explain why all office software crashes when trying to insert a hyperlink when latest creators beta is installed (15060).

The crashes all relate to the same DLL ucrtbase.dll.

As soon as I rollback to actual windows version 14393.953 the issue is non existent.

Thanks for your input

But I use the god-mode all the time! Windows 10/Office 365 is so incredibly buggy, that god-mode makes it easy to use the available tools there. Why doesn't windows do that naturally, anyway?

I was unable to send an invoice today, thanks to Excel not working its hyperlinks, perhaps Excel's just atheistic?

Fix it, Microsoft. Please. NOW!

Hi,

Just put the God mode fille in a seperate folder rather than leaving it in your docs folder. Then you can use your hyperlinks in Excel.

Hi,

I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is a problem with Windows 15063 (Creators update). I have installed a clean version with an ISO and then installed Office 2016.

I get a crash every time I try to add a hyperlink. Same DLL crash ucrtbase.dll

Can someone help?

Thanks.

HI,

The problem is that it's an upgrade from latest creators beta (15060). As soon as I upgrade Hyperlink issue appears. If I return to Windows 1607 no problems with hyperlink.
