    Hi Mulla,

    From the looks of the error message itself, looks like the Excel component is encountering an error which is the reason why it does not work properly as expected.

    To further isolate the issue, I suggest you may start with performing a quick repair. If issue still persist after quick repair, that's the time that you will run the Online Repair.

    Note that completing the Online repair, please restart your computer for the changes to take effect then check Excel right after.

    Try an Online Repair of Office. This is the recommended next step for this Excel error and reinstalls Office components that may be corrupted.

    1. Close all Office apps.
    2. Open Settings in Windows.
    3. Go to Apps > Installed apps (or Apps & features).
    4. Find Microsoft 365 or Office.
    5. Select it, then choose Modify.
    6. In the repair window, select Online Repair.
    7. Select Repair and let it finish.
    8. Restart the PC.
    9. Open Excel again and test the file.

    If Excel opens to a blank screen after that, Microsoft also recommends Online Repair for that symptom.

    If the problem is only with one workbook, try repairing the file itself:

    1. Open Excel.
    2. Select File > Open.
    3. Browse to the workbook.
    4. Select the file.
    5. Select the arrow next to Open.
    6. Choose Open and Repair.
    7. Select Repair.
    8. If that fails, select Extract Data to recover values and formulas.

    If the workbook is on a network location or affected by disk errors, move it to a local drive before trying recovery.
