Answer 1

Dear respected Wael Zahran,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

I’m sorry you’re having a problem with your Excel but based on your description we can work together to resolve it.

For the situation you encountered, we deeply understand the inconvenience caused and apologize for it.

As per your description you have already tried torepair an Office application to fix the problem. You can also uninstall Office 365 completely by using Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant (SaRA)  and then re-install Office. If you have an Office 365 for Business subscription, you can log into Office portal with the corresponding account and click Install Office button to install.

If above doesn't work from your side, then I think this issue might be raised by your local environment.

 Given this situation, I would suggest you follow the methods below and see if they could help in your scenario:

1.Could you please check to see if your antivirus might be interfering, and you can also check if you are using proxy address.

2.Perform aClean Boot under your Windows, and check if issue persist.

3.Maybe the local settings had affected the application. Thus, we would like you to check whether the issue is related to your user profile. In this situation, we suggest you Create a new user account under your Windows. To see if you still get the same error message. It is worth trying because it will help you narrow down whether the issue is caused by a specific corrupted user profile.

We appreciate your understanding that sometimes the initial suggestions may not resolve the problem very soon. However, we can work together to narrow down and resolve the situation. So, could you please provide more information below, to let us work further.
1.Screenshot of your Office version: To check version: Open any Office e.g., Excel>File>Account>Product Information (Please mask your private message for protecting your private message)

3.Confirm whether other applications also get the same problem? Such as PowerPoint or Word and etc.

4.Could you please provide me with a screenshot related to the error.

Appreciate your patience and understanding and thank you for your time and cooperation.

Sincerely,

Dear Ralph Chawatama,

Are you not aware that this is a MICROSOFT ISSUE and needs to be rectified on the company's end?

Providing users with inaccurate and useless information is simply not helpful and wrong.

Hi Wael Zahran :

It appears that Microsoft quietly fixed this MS Office C2R 30088-27 update error on 17-Aug-2024.

Multiple users affected by this error, including me, have found that manual update checks at File | Office Account | Update Options | Update Now are working normally again, and users are not required to make changes to any of their system or MS Office settings to get updates working again.
