WIndows 10 VM blue screen when opening Excel

Last couple of months my Windows 10 VM crashes whenever I try to open an Excel file.  I get that Windows blue screen of death with a countdown and the VM then reboots. Other MS Office programs all run fine.  Not sure where to begin looking for clues.

 

Running:  
Fusion Pro Version 10.1.6 (12989998)
Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19041 Build 19041
Mac Mohave 10.14.6 
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)

Uninstall and reinstall Excel? Struggling to to think how this is a VMware issue and not a Microsoft one...

Hi SammyRa,

 

It would be great if you can attach the vmware.log to this thread for analysis. You can find the log file from your VM folder.

 

Regards,
