Microsoft Office Excel has encountered a problem

Asked By Richard M Wynn 0 points N/A Posted on - 10/05/2013

Hi,

I was working with Excel recording some research findings and suddenly a message popped up as shown below. It has now become a habit and whenever I open Excel a few minutes into using it, it just quits with the error message. Any suggestions?

Now the process is

Firstly, Completely removed the printer driver and then re-installed freshly and updated.
Now when you enable the printer spooler service, you will not  get Excel error and you can print too.

thank you.

Microsoft Office Excel has encountered a problem

Hi,

The problem you are facing may be caused by some add-ins  or extension that won't start. Try opening MS-Excel in safe mode.  If you are able to work for  long time then the problem is caused by one of the add-ins  or extensions. 

To launch Ms Excel in Safe mode. Press Ctrl button when you launch the program. If  Excel program is not launched in Safe mode, you need to start Windows in Safe mode and try launching Excel program and see if it crashes unexpectedly after few minutes of working. If it  doesn't crash, disable all extensions and add-ins in Excel.
