Please, everyone in the thread, make sure you have reported it! Hopefully if they have enough official reports (this isn't an official report, btw), they will take it seriously and work toward fixing it.
If you don't know how to make the report, ask and I will gladly guide you.
I'm losing patience in waiting for an update from Microsoft and dealing with this "fun" glitch, and my mouse is the one I'm taking that frustration out on.

HandFoodler if you could drop a link that'd be great. Will definitely report.
- HandFoodlerMar 06, 2024Copper ContributorSure, so I don't have a link, but there are two options within excel itself.
1. On the "file" tab at the bottom, there is a link for "Feedback". Click "I don't like something". A box should pop up, where you can report the issue.
2. Use the "Help" tab in excel, which will show a few options. I've done both "Contact Support" and "Feedback." Contact support forces you to first describe your problem and search their "suggested articles". So don't go that route. Click "feedback".
Someone contacted me within a couple days to ask for more details, and then asked me to send a wiped version of my workbook. Who knows if they ever looked at it?
But maybe, if we flood them, it will get their attention.- Gwennie363Mar 08, 2024Copper Contributor
HandFoodler Thank you - will do this for sure.

Gwennie363 I have had the same issue for over a year. Very frustrating indeed. Scrolling around with the cursor keys seems to reset it but this is a big productivity hit.
