The importance of Microsoft Office Update | Fix random crashes and performance issues

[last updated: September 29, 2021]

Introduction

The past years we have received several support requests that we found out were related to/caused by (often already fixed) bugs in Excel 2019/2016/365.
This article shows information on how to update your Excel installation and also contains links to the Microsoft articles with all the detailed information about what has been fixed and improved by the Excel team.

How an error or crash in Excel may appear to be caused by ASAP Utilities, but is not

Unfortunately, several bugs were introduced in Excel 2016/365 and Excel's VBA/macro language that could cause slow performance and crashes in Excel (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).

Since many users don't use macros themselves, they may only experience such specific Excel bugs (slow speed/crashes) when they use an add-in, such as for example ASAP Utilities, that uses Excel's built-in VBA/macro programming language for its tools and it then seems as if the add-in is faulty. In general, if something goes wrong in ASAP Utilities, you should get a polite error message. It should never make Excel crash.
Most of the times updating Excel will solve it already. If a fix isn't available yet from Microsoft, then we try to create a workaround in ASAP Utilities to handle such Excel bugs, because we do not always know how long it will take the Excel team to fix it.

Fortunately Microsoft has already released many updates with fixes related to the performance and stability of Excel 2019/2016/365.

Using Cisco Endpoint security and an old version of ASAP Utilities?

In case you are using Cisco Endpoint security and experience Excel crashing with ASAP Utilities, then please read the following and upgrade to version 7.8 or later:

Excel 365/2019/2016 Update History
