Excel 2016 slow to startup
Hi Alexander,
I'm not sure in result, but you may try to open your files in separate instances.
Here is how to change default behaviour https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/3165211/how-to-force-excel-to-open-in-a-new-instance-by-default
but before change the registry I'd test in batch file with commands like
excel /x "c:\my path\my file.xlsx"
with and without /x if any difference

Thanks, it looks like that's working. I will ask the user to see if it's now solved to his satisfaction now. I'll let it know as soon as I have an answer.
Yes, please share the info when ready. I personally didn't play with that, it will be interesting to know the result.
A little bit of a late reply, but the good news: Your suggestion works!
Thank you very much!
