This problem started yesterday.
I installed the optional feature update and then the .NET update yesterday, and the problem appeared resolved, but now again today the problem is back?
When ever I change a table filter, Excel freezes for like at least 30 seconds. It's not specific to a particular spreadsheet, it happens on all spreadsheets.
The only other change I've made is change my mouse pointer color and cursor size?

Ever since the laterst Windows 11 Update my Excel has been slow. If I click on ANYTHING it takes about 5 seconds for the program to respond.
I tried the solution above 'Disable Hardware Acceleration' and I don't even have that option in my advanced menu.
Hello Microsoft.
I bought a new laptop reccently with Windows 11 and Excel is freezing. Are you going to help your loyal customer?
this was my solution after many days i barely stumbled across this solution. Highly recommend that if anyone's excel is "laggy" this is more than likely the issue
Where do I find the "Text cursor indicator"?

I turned it off and are still having issues with Excel.
