Another workaround is to simply type the entire function name that you'd like to use, rather than selecting it from the drop-down list.
The fix will be available in the next update for Insiders Beta. It will be version 16.0.15917.20000 or greater. The fix will be available to other update channels soon.- rasridhoDec 01, 2022Copper ContributorI've got an update Windows 11 KB5020044 and install it but my excel still crash if I choose formula from drop-down list.

In the meantime, you can work around the issue by using the Formula Builder dialog. To open it, press Shift+F3 or click on the Fx button next to the formula bar when you want to create or edit a formula.- Mycroft51Nov 26, 2022Copper Contributor
Steve_K_Excel ty. I too am still having this problem of Excel crashing when I select a function from the drop down menu. Although it does work fine if I just type it in. Looking forward to the fix. I would appreciate if you could post once the fix is sent out. thanks.
