Excel 365 on Windows 11 extremely slow and constantly freezing

Anonymous

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?

Regards,

    Apparently nobody from Microsoft is monitoring this. It's been a major issue for several people for FAR TOO LONG.

    None of the suggested "fixes" have worked. Very disappointing to say the least.

    We have had the same problem as well.

    I turned off the option that hooks LinkedIn to office in the settings menu and instant speed improvement...well after a restart!

    Thanks AlehFast, I'll give that a try, because not long after my post reply, Outlook froze! I couldn't even End Task it, and after a logout and logon it then couldn't open my PST files, so I had to restart.
