Excel Disappeared From After Microsoft Office Update

Many people have complained about numerous issues linked with Office application, after upgrading to Windows 10. Here are few such problems and the solutions to fix the MS office issues.

  1. Although missing from the 'recent' list in Excel, they ARE all visible in the registry. Hi Bertram12, I am running the same build of Office 2016(9330.2087) but haven't noticed the issue. In current situation, please try signing out of the Office application and then signing in again to check if there is any difference.
  2. After a recent windows update, a previous Excel vba script that was working, no longer functions correctly. The macro operation, when working, opens a csv file that is defined in the active workbook as String aString. The csv file contains a list of variables and corresponding values for those variables. The macro returns the original active.

Note: Here I have illustrated all the solutions using MS Word application. You can even make use of these on other Office applications to fix the issues.

Problem #1: Errors while trying to open Office applications

Microsoft update about the missing OneNote 2016 in office 365 and Office 2019: OneNote was previously excluded from Office 2019 installations. As of March 2020, the OneNote desktop app is once again installed alongside the Word, PowerPoint, and Excel desktop apps.

  • Word application shows “Word experienced an error trying to open the file”
  • In Excel, you might get 'This file is corrupt and cannot be opened'
  • PowerPoint application may render one of the following error
  • “The application was unable to start correctly”
  • “PowerPoint found a problem with <filename>”
  • “Sorry, PowerPoint can’t read <filename>”
