We ran across a similar issue with Excel and have not been able to resolve this.  I did a  quick repair for office on several computers and the issue fixed itself for a short time, then reoccurred.

The problem has returned for Excel but still ok with Outlook.  The protocol that stopped the problem for a while was to disable add ins and then re-enable them.  https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929135/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows   Once I restarted PC and Re-enable programs and links the problem went away.  I shut off updates to office by 

1. sOpen Excel.

2. Click File>select Account.

3. Click Update Options>select Disable Update
