Has anyone else experienced excel crashing after installing the Mar update. My excel consistently crashes when I use the paste link function and when I try to move sheets from other workbooks. These are just general everyday functions I use and have nothing to do with Power query.
 
Sorry not to have more definitive answer for you:
I've faced crashing spreadsheets before and found that I had to create a new xlsx file, then copy and paste from the corrupt xlsx to the new xlsx. Time consuming but works.

My experience with some older versions of Excel with Power Query are less stable than later versions. Be sure you have Power Query updated to the latest version - probably the most stable. But I have no experience with Power Query causing instability in an Excel workbook where no queries have been created.
