Cursor misalignment - Excel on Mac

Hi,

I´ve seen several older post regarding mac users having trouble with the mouse cursor being misaligned in Excel - so that the mouse cursor marks one cell above where you point it etc.

As it looks in the other posts I´ve been reading, this problem was solved in updated Excel versions, but I got this problem recently, after buying a Office licence for my Macbook in February 2019.

Is there any way to solve this on recent versions? Normally, restarting the program solves the problem for some time, before it suddenly comes back.

I´m running Excel version 16.23 on a 2016 Macbook (OS Mojave). The product I purchased was called "Office Home & Student 2019".

Hope someone can help, as this is quite annoying!

Regards,

Ingunn

    I don't believe I have MagicPrefs.  I've tried to find it.  Where would it be found?

    My guess is that it would be in the Applications Folder. It doesn't come with your Mac.

    MagicPrefs
