And yes I have the same problem with Word. I've shuts down completely twice but its still happening. Microsoft - HELP!
Me too - it was fine yesterday. The message gives an option to Repair Now, and says that Excel will have to close will its repaired, but nothing happens. Now I'm afraid in case its a bug. I note also that Excel was showing as an unlicensed product, which I've never seen before (and its not, its all fully paid).
I'm receiving the exact same error message. It is extremely frustrating.
