Excel Crashing with AppHangB1 Error - Need Help!

KernelCrusader

I've been having an issue with Excel where it keeps crashing and giving me an "AppHangB1" error. This often happens when I'm trying to work with large spreadsheets or when I attempt to perform complex calculations. I've already tried restarting my computer and updating both Windows and Excel to the latest versions, but the problem still persists.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what steps did you take to resolve it? I'd appreciate any suggestions or recommendations to get Excel running smoothly again. Thank you!

I've encountered similar issues with Excel crashing, especially with large files or complex calculations. Here are a few things you could try:

Disable Add-ins: Sometimes, third-party add-ins can cause conflicts. Try starting Excel in safe mode to see if the issue persists, and if not, disable any add-ins.
Check for File Corruption: If it's a particular file causing the crash, it might be corrupted. Try opening it in another program or a different machine to check.
Increase System Resources: Large spreadsheets require more memory and processing power. Close any unnecessary applications to free up resources.
Repair Office Installation: Use the repair feature in the Control Panel under Programs and Features. This can resolve underlying issues within Office applications.
Virtual Memory Settings: Adjust your system's virtual memory settings. Sometimes increasing the page file size can help in handling larger spreadsheets.

Lastly, it might be worth checking Microsoft's support page for any specific patches or updates related to Excel crashes. These issues are fairly common, so there's often detailed advice available.
