'Excel Memory pumps to 2,800 mb/s when closing

The steady state of the file is at 430mb/s. Memory doesnt change much after running macros as well as after saving the file, but when I close the file the memory shoots to 2800ish mb/s and the file just about crashes before closing. I get the "Not Responding" at the top.

Whats the deal? Could it be from a 3rd party add-in?



Solution 1:[1]

Try the following, not in a particular order:

  • disable add-ins 1 by 1 to isolate problematic plugins.
  • run without macros.
  • check if you have anything running the Workbook.BeforeClose event
