'Research' freezes my Excel 16
Alt + Left click is a shortcut for research in Excel 16, and it is causing an annoying problem for me.
When I open any excel workbook and "Alt + Left click on a cell for the first time", my excel stops working for roughly 3 minutes. It happens even on an empty sheet.
After 3 minutes, Excel eventually works. Alt + clicking on a cell does not freeze Excel anymore. But the problem is not gone. Normally, moving from a cell to another by clicking should take zero time. But, when I click on a cell and then alt + click on another, the cursor stutters for a split second like running a game on a computer that fails to meet the requirements.
I asked AIs to fix the problem but they failed equally.
Things I tried:
- Disabling Research through VBA.
- I ran a code on the immediate panel(the thing that Ctrl + G opens). The code looks like : "Application.CommandBars("Research").Enabled = False"
- I don't like it because its only temporary.
- Most importantly, the 3 minute freeze is still there. (I really hope to know why)
- Disabling Hardware Acceleration
- It didnt work.
- Resetting Microsoft Office Applications through Windows Setting.
- Even this didnt work.
- Disabling Add ins.
- I dont have any active Add in.
- Removing Excel file in appdata folder
- It didnt work.
Could anyone suggest me a thing to try?
