Excel 2019 opens and runs extremely slow

I just got a new computer, fresh install with Windows 10 Pro, fresh Office install with Office 2019 and Excel runs extremely slow. No other office products react this way. (Word, PPT)

I have run through every option found on the internet to fix a slow running excel with no help. I have no add-ons (double checked they were disabled), disabled hardware acceleration, made sure Cortana was turned off, I have repaired Office, reinstalled office, Onedrive has been disabled, I don't know what to try next. Even starting in safe mode, Excel still runs so terribly slow, you can't hardly navigate the options menu.

This is 32bit Office.

And opening a new doc is the same. Extremely slow response, extremely slow buffer (typing until seen on the screen), and (Not Responding) in the top window bar comes and goes.

Please help, I use Excel all the time, and this is unusable in this state.

Windows 10 Pro
16gb Ram
4.2ghz CPU

Seeing that you've tried just about everything under the sun, you might consider rolling back your install to Office 2016. Messy. . .I know, crummy choice. Still, that might get you going.


Another thought. . .is a 64 bit install possible?

Hmmm, that might be possible. I'll see what I can do.
