Hi all,

I had the 2 monitors which extended the display.
Once I moved the excel file to 2nd, and then do the work (scale column size , adjust font size else).
The excel file gone crashed .

Is it the bug of Microsoft Office or Windows update ? Because the problem happened sometimes but randomly.

    Hi @OA Staff ,
    Did this problem appear in all Excel Workbooks or specific Workbooks?
    Did you install any updates recently? Did this problem only appear after updating?
    I suggest you provide the detail version of Office and Windows you're using.
    Then try to test if Word documents have the same problem.
    I also suggest you open Excel in safe mode running the following command: Press Win + R, type "excel /safe" in the blank box, press Enter. If it works fine in safe mode, please check the add-ins in your excel and disable them.
    You can try to provide more information and I'm glad to help you.
