Here is the list of errors that can show up under this situation:

• Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications.
• Out of Memory
• Not enough System Resources to Display Completely
• There isn’t enough memory to complete this action. Try using less data or closing other applications. To increase memory availability, consider:
  •  Using a 64-bit version of Microsoft Excel.
  •  Adding memory to your device.

There isn’t enough memory to complete this action Excel error

It is important to note that the error message is general, but one thing is clear that the Excel app is not able to process large file sizes. The file is so huge that it consumes the whole memory available to the system. If your Excel file is large or has a lot of formulas and scripts, the system may run low on memory. That said, Microsoft has officially shared some limitations for Excel.

• Excel: Specifications and limits
• Excel Performance: Performance and Limit Improvements
• Excel: Memory usage in the 32-bit edition

Keeping this in mind, let us know how we can resolve the error message.

Excel cannot complete this task with available resources

1. Install Updates
2. File Specific Issue
3. Interfering Add-ins
4. Test with the 64-bit version of Excel
5. Add Physical RAM
6. Change the default Printer
7. Test without Antivirus

It is apparent that you need more memory. You may look at the other applications that are consuming the memory and get rid of them. You can terminate such applications, and stop them from running in the background.

Not enough System Resources to Display Completely Excel error

1] Install Updates

Sometimes it could be because of a previous update or Microsoft have released an update to handle these kinds of situations. I would highly recommend you to check for any update for your OS as well as Office software and install it before following any further suggestion.

2] File Specific Issue

If the error is occurring for only one file, then you may need to revisit the content of the files. It could be because of the high number of calculations when it happens when you copy-paste such cells, complex PivotTables, macros, and complex charts with many data points, custom views,  and so on.

It is something you need to manually check by opening it in Protected View or disabling VPA features and so on. Remember, the error will not occur when you open a file, but it will happen when it performs a heavy calculation or when you insert new data goes beyond the capacity of Excel.

You may also want to break the excel file into smaller files to handle the situation in a better way.

3] Interfering Add-ins

If you have plugins or add-ins installed in Excel, it would be a good idea to disable and check if you still face the issue. If you do not face any problem, then you need to check if there is an update for the add-in available. Sometimes Add-ins take a high amount of resources to complete a task, which results in Out of Memory, Not enough System Resources to Display Completely problem.

4] Try with the 64-bit version of Excel

A 64-bit version of Microsoft Office can handle large files better than the 32 bit Excel application. It is because there is a limit of 2 GB for any 32-bit application. If you need to handle large files almost every day, it is better to download or move to Microsoft Excel 64 bit version. It will be able to access more RAM and get things done faster without resulting in Out of Memory issue.

5] Add more physical memory to your computer

If it is the physical memory you are running out of, then its time you add more RAM to your computer. If you are switching to a 64-bit version, then adding extra memory will help you process the Excel file a lot faster.

6] Change the default Printer

When Excel launches, it polls for the default printer. At times, it may get stuck with if the printer is not available or doesn’t respond because the data is too much to handle. We will recommend you to change your default printer to one of the virtual printers available on the computer such as PDF printer or XPS document writer.

• Open Windows Settings (WIn + I)
• Navigate to Devices > Printers and Scanners
• Uncheck the box which says Let Windows manage my default printer
• Select one of the virtual printers, and click on Manage button
• Click on Set as default button under Manage your device section

Try again, and see if it works fine this time.

7] Disable Antivirus

Antivirus software is known to cause these types of problems, especially if they end up scanning the file again and again. It can be a false positive as well if the antivirus things the file can harm the computer. Most of antivirus offer a temporary disable option. So try again after doing that or completely uninstall the AV to check if the issue is resolved.

This error prevents users from working in Microsoft Excel because they can’t open any spreadsheet. Some users have seen this error while attaching an Excel file in Microsoft Outlook or while opening an Excel file from Outlook and from another email client.

The complete error message is as follows:

Not enough memory to run Microsoft Excel. Please close other applications and try again.

The following fixes will help you get rid of this problem. Before you proceed, close other running applications and see if you can open Microsoft Excel. If not, restart your computer and check if the issue is fixed.

1. Run Excel as an administrator
2. Make the Excel folder empty
3. Change your default printer
4. Troubleshoot Excel in Safe Mode
5. Troubleshoot your computer in a Clean Boot state
6. Change the Trust Center settings

10. Turn off Preview Pane in File Explorer
11. Delete temporary files and folders
12. Repair Office

Below, we have explained all these fixes in detail.

1] Run Excel as an administrator

Sometimes the problem occurs due to administrative privileges. To check this, launch Microsoft Excel as administrator and then see if you get the same error message. To do that, right-click on the Microsoft Excel shortcut and select Run as administrator.

If this fixes your problem, you can make Excel always run as administrator.

2] Make the Excel folder empty

When you create a new spreadsheet or edit the existing one, Microsoft Excel creates its unsaved copy in the Excel folder. This is how Excel recovers your unsaved document when your computer or Excel crashes suddenly. These files remain in that folder until you save your spreadsheet. By default, these temporary files are located in the Roaming folder. Apart from that, some temporary cache files may also be created in that folder.

Make the Excel folder empty and check if this fixes your problem. To do that, follow the steps below:

1. Open the Run command box by pressing the Win + R keys.
2. Type %appdata% and click OK. This command will directly open the Roaming folder on your C drive.
3. Now, open the Microsoft folder and then open the Excel folder. You may see some temporary files and folders there.
4. Move all the files and folders to another location in order to make the Excel folder empty.
5. Open Microsoft Excel and see if the problem disappears.

If the problem still occurs, you can move the files back to the Excel folder.

3] Change your default printer

Sometimes, the problem occurs when Excel is not able to access the default printer. To check this, change your default printer. You can also make a virtual printer as your default printer, like Microsoft Print to PDF or Microsoft XPS Document Writer. After performing this step, check if the problem occurs.

4] Troubleshoot Excel in Safe Mode

There might be some problematic add-ins in Excel that are causing the problem. To check this, you have to troubleshoot Excel in Safe Mode. Check if you are able to launch Excel in Safe Mode. If yes, some of your Add-ins are the culprit.

To launch Excel in Safe Mode, open the Run command box and type excel /safe. After that, click OK. This will open Excel in Safe Mode. Now follow the steps below:

1. Go to “File > Options.”
2. Select Add-Ins from the left side.
3. Click on the Manage drop-down and select COM Add-ins. Click Go.
4. Deselect anyone add-in to disable it and click OK.
5. Close Excel in Safe Mode and launch Excel in normal mode. See if the issue appears. If yes, repeat the above steps to disable another add-in and then launch Excel in normal mode again.

The above steps will help you find the problematic add-in. Once you find it, remove it from Excel.

5] Troubleshoot in a Clean Boot state

If there is no problematic add-in in Excel, the issue might occur due to a conflicting background or startup app. You can easily identify that program by starting your computer in a Clean Boot state. After starting your computer in a Clean Boot state, launch Microsoft Excel and see if the “Not enough memory to run Microsoft Excel” message appears. If not, there is a program that is conflicting with Microsoft Excel due to which Excel is displaying this error.

To identify that program, enable some of the disabled programs in the Clean Boot state, and then start your computer in a normal state. Launch Excel after starting your computer in the normal state and see if the error occurs. If yes, some of the programs you have just enabled are causing the problem. To identify those programs, disable the enabled programs one by one and launch Excel each time you disable a program. This will help you identify the problematic startup application.
