Excel is very slow where as and when I work it shows percentage at bottom saying calculating 4 threads with a percentage, and it will do this on every step thus making a 10 min work to 30 -40 min work, which is not at all productive. Most of work is related to analysis on excel. Hence this is a very urgent request to fix it.

Also Please note the file size is not very huge like some files are 7 to 10KB . Please help on this.

    Hi Sudeep,

    Thanks for posting on our forum.

    I suggest you try safe mode to check the result:

    Open Office apps in safe mode on a Windows PC

    Besides, I have searched this, you can refer to the following article:

    Excel performance: Improving calculation performance

    If it is still slow for calculating, I want to collect the following information for further analysis:

    1. The version of Office. (Click File>select Account)
    2. Check if you can use the files normally before? Which operation have you taken before the issue occurred, such as updating Office?
    3. The affected file. I want to collect the file to test on our side to check it is related to file or Excel.

    To protect your privacy, I've sent you a private message to collect the information. You can access it via private message.

    Thanks,

    Qing

    Hi Sudeep,

    Can you use Excel normally? Do you have any updates?
