Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complete an OLE action.

This factset error has been the bane of my existence throughout my young career. At one point, I was able to break the cycle by tracing the link of an item in PowerPoint back into excel but that fix no longer works.

Does anyone have a solution to this Factset error?

Optio quia distinctio cupiditate rerum quia vero. Sit voluptates ut sint aut consequatur aut error. Sunt quis autem eius et possimus culpa ipsa.

Necessitatibus culpa et voluptas velit repellat. Vel asperiores quia dolorem quia omnis aut. Voluptatem officia sed dignissimos distinctio. Nulla et sit ad architecto ipsa ut. Impedit voluptatibus quidem esse et maxime autem.

Quia et ex sunt nesciunt molestias expedita. Totam veritatis quo consequatur iusto atque quam.
