Within the last day, when selecting Paste Options in Outlook and Word, the application locks and does not respond. I have tried repairs to Office 365 and have done 2 uninstalls and reinstalls. I have also contacted Microsoft support who escalated to the next support level. I have tried everything I can think of to resolve this problem. Not sure if it was caused with the recent update to Office. Would like to be able to reload the previous version to see if that resolves the issue.

Thomas_Uhl I went to a previous version and restored and it fixed the issue. Was experiencing the same problem. I was concerned it had something to do with the file being housed on SharePoint but either way restoring to the previous version resolved my issue.

I am also haveing the same problem. I moved the excel file to sharepoint a while ago and was wodering if that might be the problem but I am quite sure the Paste Special feature worked ok since then.
