Hello, when i typing or moving inside a text box cursor lags, do you know why is this happening?

This lag often happens because of display rendering or hardware acceleration. Try going to File > Options > Advanced > Display and turn on "Disable hardware graphics acceleration". Also check your zoom level and set it to 100%. If your sheet has a lot of text boxes or shapes, reducing them can help improve typing speed. After making these changes, restart Excel and test again.
