excel crashes changing font color
hi all, here is a good one. in excel (via microsoft365) I can open a speadsheet and enter data into a cell. I can't change anything with the font, color etc from the ribbon or the right click menu...
Start Excel in Safe Mode: press Windows key + R, type excel /safe, then test the font color control. If it works, disable all COM add-ins under File > Options > Add-ins > Manage: COM Add-ins > Go, restart Excel normally, then enable them individually to identify the conflict.
If it still hangs in Safe Mode, install the latest Microsoft 365 and Windows updates, then test from a new Windows user profile.
