Hi all,

Since version 2001 2430.20050 , Excel is no longer responding as it should :

  • Save as - Browse : no exporer window is shown
  • New file - Save : file is not saved, on exit excel the confirmation window is shown every time over when replying "yes" on the question to save the file
  • file - options - addins - manage excel addins : when clicking the button, excel crashes

Tried this on different hardware with different accounts, they all react the same.

A solution is highly apreciated.

Best regards,

Kris

    Hi Kris,

    Thanks for writing back and letting us know. Sorry to hear that problem persists and apologies for the inconvenience caused.

    As you’re encountering the problem in the different devices and even one of your colleagues reported this behavior, firstly we suggest you provide the feedback from the Office application as related team can take into notice. Refer to this article: How do I give feedback on Microsoft Office?.

    After referring to your replies, I’ve tested in my colleague’s devices with same version and we can’t reproduce the problem at our end. So, I would like to narrow down the problem by requesting you switch your Office applications to Monthly Channel on one of the devices to check the behavior.

    Refer to this article: How to switch from Semi-Annual Channel to Monthly Channel for the Office 365 suite.

    Note:

    We suggest using the Office Deployment Tool method and change the configuration to the one below:

    <Configuration>

    <Updates Channel="Monthly" />

    </Configuration>

    Lastly, we would like to confirm and collect the following information i.e.

    a. Your Windows OS version. (Click Windows logo key + R> Enter winver> OK)

    b. Is the Window OS version on all the devices where problem is encountering is same?

    Appreciate your patience.

    Best Regards,

    Chitrahaas

    Are you using Office in French Language ? 

    If yes, try to switch to english as proposed here : https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/problem-with-excel-in-french-language/04982dcd-234b-4284-99dc-5a6cf9dd7055 It solved the problem for me.

    Hi Kris,

    We have experienced these exact problems across our organization/customers today. Aswell as Excel crashing when trying to print. 

    The only way we were able to solve the issue was to completely reinstall the Office installation......

    We are using dutch language, didn't try your solution.  We had to uninstall Office, and do a full re-install.  That solved the problem for us.  Online repair (full) wasn't effective in our case.

    Best Regards,

    Kris
