Excel Comments Causing Crash
In a blank fresh workbook I insert a comment. With the comments section open on the right side as pictured if I go to a different sheet in the workbook and add a new comment the workbook crashes.. ...
I'm having this exact issue. Sometimes immediate and sometimes it takes 10-15 minutes of adding comments to multiple tabs before it crashes. We tried reinstalling office 365, added all updates to office and windows, disabled hardware acceleration, turned off protected view. Appears to be an issue with the new "comments" feature in office 365. Any xlsx workbook I try to use crashes when I try to use "comments" and then reopens as a recovered xlsb file. The old comments feature that is now renamed to "notes" appears to work fine. beick88
- Also, when the recovered file opens and the drop down on the file gives you the option to view the repairs excel says it found no errors so no repairs were made
