Excel not working properly since updating to Windows 11
Hello
I faced the exact issue without knowing the exact cause till half an hour ago only.
This issue started to happen since one month exactly and I did everything you can imagine by uninstalling the office itself 5 or 6 times and clearing the cache and installing a different versions of Microsoft office till I noticed that from a month I installed Foxit pdf editor and it was appearing beside the help tab inside the excel as usual same the Acrobat.
I digged deeply till I found the final solution
Here are the steps:
1- Go to File/Options/Add-ins
2- Manage in the bottom
3- Choose COM Add-ins
4- Uncheck any box including the pdf program you are using
5- It should be solved by now
Try and give me your feedback

I have had problems similar to those described in these posts and they started to appear after one of the last two Win 11 automatic updates. Disabling the graphics accelerator as suggested by one of the posters worked for me. It sped up scrolling through the file significantly, but more importantly, I can now again read the bottom of the display. (Btw, I never had a cell lock up problem so I can’t comment on that issue).
Hossam_El_Mahdy you are a real GENIUS!! PDF Editor plugin was the problem. Thank you guy, you saved me!!
Garagolo Would you be able to post the response that you said was the solution? I have a Foxit PDF Creator COM Add-in (not plug in). Is that what he's referring to? I have to figure out how to disable it as it serves no purpose. If it turns out to be the reason for a ton of frustration or a long period of time, I will not be happy with Foxit.
Thank you for your reply and help. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the problem on my end as I don't have any plug-in to deactivate.
I am sorry to hear that, I replied because I faced exactly the same problem with all its details and when I found the solution, I wrote immediately.
I hope you can find the answer 🙂
Best of Luck Santero10
