Microsoft hang

Important: Changing your antivirus settings may make your PC vulnerable to viral, fraudulent or malicious attacks. Microsoft does not recommend that you attempt to change your antivirus settings. Use this workaround at your own risk. You may have to contact your antivirus software vendor to determine how to configure your software to exclude any integration with Excel or to exclude scanning in Excel.

If the methods that were mentioned earlier did not resolve your issue, the issue could be either file specific, or environmental. The following section describes how to troubleshoot additional issue that can cause Excel to hang, or crash. Environmental factors are just as important as file contents, and add-ins when you are troubleshooting crashes.

You can help determine the cause of your issue by taking the following actions:. Moving the file locally will help determine whether there is something wrong with the file, or with where the file is saved.

Several issues can arise when you save an Excel file over a network or to a web server. It is a good idea to save the file locally. This should be done in the following scenarios:. For more information about Microsoft software that is running in a virtualized environment, see the following article: Support policy for Microsoft software running in non-Microsoft hardware virtualization software.

Excel files can grow fairly large when you start adding lots of formatting and shapes. Make sure that your system has enough RAM to run the application.

For system requirements of the Microsoft Office suites, go to the following Microsoft articles:. System requirements for Office System requirements for Office System requirements for Office System requirements for Excel Office introduced native bit versions of Office products to take advantage of larger processing capacities. To read more about bit editions of Office, go to the following Microsoft articles:. When you start Excel, it examines the default printer and video drivers that will display your Excel workbooks.

Excel is printer-intensive, and it will run slower when Excel files are saved in Page Break Preview view. Testing a file by using different printers such as the Microsoft XPS Document Writer printer driver, or the VGA video driver will determine whether the problem is with a specific printer or video driver.

If you still have hanging or crashing issues in Excel after you work through the resolution methods that are mentioned here, you should contact Microsoft Support for guided troubleshooting.

Next to crashes, application hangs are the most common source of user disruption when working with Win32 applications. There are many different root causes for application hangs, and not all of them manifest themselves in an unresponsive UI.

However, an unresponsive UI is one of the most common hang experiences, and this scenario currently receives the most operating system support for both detection as well as recovery. Windows automatically detects, collects debug information, and optionally terminates or restarts hung applications.

Otherwise, the user might have to restart the machine in order to recover a hung application. When an application or more accurately, a thread creates a window on the desktop, it enters into an implicit contract with the Desktop Window Manager DWM to process window messages in a timely fashion.

The thread retrieves and dispatches those messages via its message queue. If the thread does not service the queue by calling GetMessage , messages are not processed, and the window hangs: it can neither redraw nor can it accept input from the user.

The operating system detects this state by attaching a timer to pending messages in the message queue. If a message has not been retrieved within 5 seconds, the DWM declares the window to be hung. Detection is only the first step. The Desktop Window Manager assists by seamlessly hiding and then replacing the hung window with a 'ghost' copy displaying a bitmap of the original window's previous client area and adding "Not Responding" to the title bar.

As long as the original window's thread does not retrieve messages, the DWM manages both windows simultaneously, but allows the user to interact only with the ghost copy.

Using this ghost window, the user can only move, minimize, and - most importantly - close the unresponsive application, but not change its internal state. The Desktop Window Manager does one last thing; it integrates with Windows Error Reporting, allowing the user to not only close and optionally restart the application, but also send valuable debugging data back to Microsoft.

You can get this hang data for your own applications by signing up at the Winqual website. Windows 7 added one new feature to this experience. The operating system analyzes the hung application and, under certain circumstances, gives the user the option to cancel a blocking operation and make the application responsive again.

The current implementation supports cancellation of blocking Socket calls; more operations will be user-cancelable in future releases.
