Update: Microsoft has released an update to fix this issue
Microsoft update KB4484305 from November 19 fixes an issue in which Excel add-ins that were enabled the last time that you used Excel might not load correctly when you open Excel.What happened?
A Microsoft update from November 12 for Excel 2016, KB5002653, has introduced a bug that affects users of Excel add-ins, including ASAP Utilities. After installing the update, Excel 2016 users may encounter an error where Excel fails to load add-ins.
