I have two PCs, both have Office 365 installed (Build 16.0.14827.20180, 32bit).
Both load the same Excel sheet from the network.
First PC shows the error correction correctly, cells are marked with a little green triangle on the left top.
Second PC, with exact the same Excel settings as the first, does not show/mark those errors ...
It only happens with that one file, using another file or just doing a fresh spreadsheet shows the errors.
I reseted the "ignored errors" in options, didn't help.
An idea(s) guys?
Thanks, Tom

I got a recent problem with Excel.
We are working with macros and it is in a Citrix envoirment.
We are filling an Excel sheet with data that works perfectly fine.
But our coworkers have made themself templates which are getting filled.
Now if you choose the template to be filled it is first pretty slow and then actually freezes/crashes.
What I have recognized when you choose the template like \server\folder\template.xls it crashes but if you choose it like "\server\folder\template.xls" it doesnt but the templates seem not to work as their saved macros won't run.
But what else diffrences between those two Options.
Is it really only macros?
As it seems, we had a problem with the excel Installtion.
There was a problem between Excel 2016 32bit, Excel 2016 64bit and Excel 365.
We made a new clear installation with excel 365 and it worked again.
Therefore still thank you for your help and Ideas.

Have you tried opening the file in another PC (with another office setup)? Sometimes it happens with corrupted installation. You can try repairing office as well:

Recently I received macro excel file with Smart View. It was working all fine.
Today I added small piece of code - 5 lines to set formula in a small range of cells and then to do paste special values. That piece of code is correct, tested. Code is added on Workbook_Open, inside already present code.
But what happened, now when i open the file i get error:
"File not found: HsAddin file".
I checked for answers:
to check it in options->addins->disabled items
But there are no disabled items
to edit in regedit, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Resiliency,
But there is no Resiliency...
I am running Windows 8, 64-bit operating system, Excel 2013.
Can anyone suggest how to check what has happened to the add-in?
I have a .xlsm file named A on my Laptop.
With macros it also has data validation(simple lists) applied to some cells.
I copy this file and paste it in a network shared folder so that it is visible on PC 1. ( I saved it by the name B.).
I open the file B on my laptop, it works fine.
Now I go to the PC 1 where I had copied it, and open it on the PC.
On opening the file B, I find that the macros work fine, but the data validation is not working. Those cells don't even show arrows.
Note: My laptop has Excel 2013, and the PC has excel 2007.
I don't understand if its a version difference problem or security problem or something else.
Hope I have been clear in explaining my doubt.
Please let me know where am I going wrong.
Looking Forward,
Thanks a lot in advance.
This may not be what you are experiencing, but we had a similar issue not too long back, can you check if the Objects are visible?

I am using Excel 2010 and am having difficulty with one old workbook created in Excel 2003. Lots of symptoms to report!
No other workbooks are giving me this problem. This problem file usually causes "MS Excel - (workbook name.xls) [Compatibility Mode] (Not responding) and a blank screen apart from the task bar and this Excel message on a single line across the top of the screen. Waiting doesn't solve the problem. If I close Excel and choose the "Close program" option, it sometimes shows me the file as I remember it for a couple of seconds, then the program closes. Re-opening the file just gives the same behaviour again. During the first few seconds of loading, I can see the message "Contacting server for information" at the bottom of the Excel screen.
In Task Manager I can find EXCEL.EXE *32 running. I'm using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.
This is a file I use regularly in projects as a specialised calculator, and so I re-copy it each time and save it to save the calculation records in the project file. I've found that versions of the workbook created even several years ago and have given no trouble until now all suffer this problem, so it looks like a problem with Excel 2010. This is the first time I've tried to open these files since migrating from a Win XP computer running Excel 2003.
Please can anyone help me to open the file and to resolve the problem?
Thanks
There might be a calculation or a marcro activated on start up that messes things up.
Try the following:
Open the Excel application, with a blank workbook. Set calculation to manual. Now look up your Macro settings and set these to "disable with notifications".
With these things set, open your misbehaving workbook again and see what happens now. Dont let the macros (if any) start yet! Open the VBA Editor window and check for a script in Workbook called Workbook_Open. If that is present check its content or put a break in and debug it.
Let us know what you find, if any.
UPDATE:
It sounds like there is a database link to an external source that is trying to refresh on startup but isnt working correctly (anymore). I now remember likewise behaviour when I had an Excel workbook with tons of SQL queries in it that (in case of showing a complete table or view by applying SELECT * FROM ...) could overlap other data and that would create autoshutdowns for me. Change the option in the Trust Center for External Content to Disable when you open this workbook and let us know!
I have a client with the same issue. The problem was resolved by removing all the logo's (Images) from the sheet. It appears that the logo contains a link to some web site. I copied the logo into paint and copied it back.
Problem Solved!
It appears that an object placed in the sheet can have its own links embedded in it???
I hope this helps!
