I recently installed the latest update and now it takes for ever for excel to go from one cell to another, it stays stuck in different sales, is too slow with dynamic tables. etc.
I've tried re installing Microsoft Office and it did not work. The only Microsoft App with problems is Excel.

I was finally able to bring back excel back to speed on my Mac.
What I did was to get into General>Login Items and and blocked Microsoft OneDrive as shown in the attached picture.
Now everything is back to normal.
I hope it works for the rest.

Pablo

I haven't heard of any other users having similar issues with this update. Please try performing a clean restart of your operating system to determine whether background programs are interfering with Excel.

There is no document from MS which guides Excel performance improvement. I believe you can get inspired from the following links:

I have the same exact issue and I am not finding your response helpful. As a mac user and especially after your update, what you be best way to find the issue slowing down EXCEL so much.
Thank you for your support
