Excel does not allow me to insert rows (and when it does, its armageddon)
- Jun 06, 2024
Hi all. I may have found out a way around this problem. If you change the workbook calculations to manual, it allows you to insert cells and the file does not mess with the formulas. Not sure for how long it will work, but at least you are allow to edit the models while somebody (hopefully) fix the issue
Same here, I have a tons of problem. I don't know if it's the new monthly version that are causing them but I am working on a file and it's hellish !
Inserting rows works like once and then I am unable to insert rows (or move cells) in any workbook. Even an empty one. I am forced to close all my files and I have to try my luck when I am opening them back if I will be able to do what I need to do.
It's been some time (like one month or two max) when inserting copied rows was sometimes not working first time and I had to do it again to have Excel actually do it. But since today I can barely work on one file which requires me to insert rows to update some info.
I hope it will be quickly fixed.... 😕

Did you ever find a real permanent fix to your issue? I just posted a reply to the original post as I am experiencing the same problem all of a sudden. Please excuse that I'm pinging everyone who posted here to see if anyone came to any sort of permanent fix.
