I'm experiencing the same. Happens randomly. Unresponsive until I reduce window / reopen it - or switch to a different worksheet in a different window.

I don't seem to be the only person with who this is happening. A friend of mine is also having the same issue. Excel is my main tool of work and some days it is just unusable anymore where I have to reduce and reopen the window for every formula I am typing. I have tried to reinstall as well as repair Office several times but nothing seems to work.

 

Could someone please attend to this matter please!

      Was there ever a solution to this? I'm having the same issue and for me it seems whenever I try to copy/paste anything, the sheet freezes up. So it seems, for me, whenever I get anything in the buffer it completely locks up and is really a pain.

        JimJohnson1611 Never received assistance on this. Microsoft could not assist or did not want to, Dell replaced my motherboard, RAM and SSD under warrant which did not resolved the issue. Dell ended up replacing my laptop for me under warranty which appears to have resolved the issue.
