My Excel v16.71 from Office 2021 for Mac worked fine on macOS 13.2.1, and now on macOS 13.3 as well. That ADAL4 framework is internal to the Excel application. Did you attempt to add any third-party component to Excel prior to your posted crash, or use an Excel spreadsheet with that dependency? Is it crashing on any Excel spreadsheet?


Try pressing and holding the shift key when launching Excel to prevent it from reading its last saved execution state.
