    No, it did not help.
    Excel still crashes when trying text to columns, format cells or print (and who knows what else).
    Excel seems to work in safe mode.
    Don't have any active add-ins.
    What to do next?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > MICROSOFT > OFFICE Delete the keys (items) you find in the OFFICE folder but not the sub-folders. This removes traces of previous installs to avoid possible conflicts when installing the new version of Office. b)HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > MICROSOFT > OFFICE > DELIVERY > SOURCEENGINE > DOWNLOADS Delete the keys (items) you find here.
