Run-time error 1004 when creating new Excel worksheet

Question

Everytime I create a new Excel document it opens with a Visual Basics for Applications Error Run-time error '1004': Method 'Name' of object 'AddIn' failed message.

I have to press End to close the error before I can start a worksheet.

This is new behavior in the last couple of days. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Excel but the error still appears.

I am using Excel for Mac Version 16.89 (24090815)
MacOS Sonoma version 14.4.1

Any ideas on how to get the error to stop popping up whenever I create a new worksheet or open a saved worksheet?

Thanks

Figured it out :)

Had to turn off the Add-in called "Acrobatexceladdin" and the errors stopped.

Man, you are a genius! I loved that you were able to solve this without help. These kinds of errors are the ones that take a lot of time, and experts who have never experienced this issue will never understand. They’ll say things like: "First, make sure your computer is turned on.".

Anyway, you solved my problem. Thanks!

Likewise. This just started happening to me a couple of days ago. Turned that add-in off and the error is gone!
