issue has arisen where one user accesses a set of Excel files on a work public drive
Lately since upgrade to Win 10 Excel crashes or stops responding. User then reboots and fine for a bit but starts again

I have uninstalled re installed Office has to be 2010 as corporate licence reimaged his machine with a standard preset company build

I copied the files to the root of his drive and this has worked in that locally he can use, but he has to copy the info back at he end of the day in order to make sure the work is saved securely in case he has issues with his own machine I have looked at the xlatartup file and it doesn’t appear corrupt in bst it doesn’t point to the UNC of the files

I think it may have to do with macros being corrupt how can I fix this. Does anyone have any ideas ?
 
I get some daft crap happening on out shares with word sometimes refusing to do what the open command is supposed to do with the odd user or two (identical builds ect) - i just copy the entire document to either the clipboard - then back to a new file or to notepad stripping out all the macros and guff. Using either one of these depending on how much its not playing.
Going to be harder to do with excel but something similar is worth a shot, copy each sheet to a new file ect.

We currently have an even bigger problem right now, 1803 seems to have broken a lot of stuff - one of which is the cryptography service and several other things associated with it - https webpages refusing to open are the outcome of this. There are... multiple fixes, patches to the fixes, rollups of the patches for the fixes, fixes for the broken patches for the fixes and more updates to the update that updated the update to work.

Upshot is windows 10 is a bucket of hot mess at the moment :p
 
It's not something like power saving on something. So that it loses connection. I have a problem with this in recent updates. It disconnects drives even as I'm using them. As they are encrypted I have to remount them to restart the process.

I wish tech companies would stop deciding how things are configured without asking me.

As for excel. I'd hit the excel user forums. See if anyone else has the same issues
