Ctrl F brings up debug window instead of find
Sometimes when I have the same excel file open for hours, when I press ctrl f it brings up the debug function instead of the find menu. When I close excel and reopen the file, the normal ctrl f function is restored. Any ideas what this bug is and how to fix? With some light google searching I couldn't find any other users reporting the same issue.
Are any of the files you are opening .xlsm files?
Do you have any addins installed?
Also try pressing Alt + F11 to see if the PERSONAL.XLSB workbook has any modules in it
- Does it always happen with the same file, or different files?
Have you ever used your Personal Macro workbook?- A BCopper Contributor
Different files. When it happens, it applies to all excel files open at that time. And I don't know what a personal macro workbook is, I don't use macros.

- Arul TresoldiIron ContributorI always thought ctrl+f works only on web/pdf. I'm using ctrl+shift+t (Italy) to open the find menu; in English systems may be ctrl+shift+f?
For English version that's Ctrl+F
CTRL+F
Displays the Find and Replace dialog box, with the Find tab selected.
SHIFT+F5 also displays this tab, while SHIFT+F4 repeats the last Find action.
CTRL+SHIFT+F opens the Format Cells dialog box with the Font tab selected.
