Unable to rename excel worksheets first time

Hi,

Most grateful to the community if you could help fix a troubling problem with renaming excel worksheets.

I use office365 and some time middle of this year, i am having to make multiple attempts to try to rename the excel worksheet name. I usually right click on the mouse pointed on the tab and activate rename. The tab responds by changing into editable field but then almost always changes back and goes into a cell on the worksheet (usually the first cell of the worksheet) as i am trying to type. I have to race to to try to type before it leaves that mode . Sometimes it remains and allows me to make the changes - but this is very rare now.  This is so frustrating as i am trying to complete my project.

Thank you

  • Do you have any VBA code running that employs a timer? Or do you have any add-ins that might cause this behavior?

      I do not have VBA code running but do have @Risk excel software extension added.
