hi NikolinoDE, further update
only in excel. works fine in word, outlook, powerpoint, onenote. These even change text instantly when you hover on the chosen, font, color, style.
Excel allows the drop menu but then crashes.
yes, bug somewhere, or registry setting ****** up.
no new software (except MS) no hew hardware.
it is an Acer Aspire 64 -bit all in one running Windows 11 Home 22H2, (build 22621.1485) and office both updated from Microsoft 365.
Excel works fine on a surface tablet with the same account, I can use excel online which works fine (but slow internet)
MS defender for AV, upto date.
no conflicts in hardware, I will look at the graphics drivers once I get the replacement.
as said, uninstalling and reinstalling office didn't do anything, I am almost at reinstalling windows just looking if I have missed anything
cheers

I'm at my wit's end, unfortunately I can't help with any suggestions for a solution.
If I find something newer I'll update you.
Maybe it's a buck, as already said, and will be solved with the new updates in April, or another user has a suggested solution that will help.
Until then...thank you for your patience and understanding
