NFR - Excel crashing problem

Sorry to interrupt the more important matters but as of this morning whenever I use the right or left arrows to move to a cell, after having put a value in that cell, Excel crashes and brings up the file recovery pane.  I'm using Windows 10 and have been for some time.  This has only started today and I haven't installed any updates.   Any ideas please?  It's only when I put a value in a cell, numeric or alphanumeric.

Last time I came across this issue it was due to the keyboard. The add-ins can also cause this issue. Can you try with another keyboard or give the current one a good clean. If that doesn't work :

- Have you tried opening Excel in safe mode first? You can do this by holding down the windows key + R and typing 'Excel /safe' into the box and hitting return. If the error doesn't appear, your issue relates to the add-ins. Disable them and add them back in one-by-one to find the villain.
- Aside from the above, have you checked the event viewer for some more information.
- Are you using any custom macros?
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
