Keyboard shortcut to collapse formula bar not working
About a week ago the regular keyboard shortcut that I use to collapse and expand the formula bar in Excel (Ctrl+Shift+U) stopped working, and instead increased the worksheet zoom by 5%.
Would anyone know why this has changed, or what the updated keyboard shortcut for collapsing/expanding the formula bar would be?
If shortcut works in Excel safe mode (not Windows safe mode) that most probably means that one of add-ins uses same shortcut and blocks it for Excel.
Try to run Excel in normal mode, disable add-ins one by one and each time check if the shortcut works. With that you localize the add-in which prevents using shortcut.
After that disable using of that shortcut for add-in, if that's possible. If not, when to choose, use add-in but have no shortcut in Excel, or opposite.
On which Excel platform/version you are?
Is it the same if you start Excel in safe mode?
