Every time I try to embed a excel sheet I get  An Unhandled exception occurred on the dispatcher thread. See C:\Programdata\PTC\Mathcad Prime\Logs\Mathcad Prime_Exception_20151021_135622.log for more information. Prime will attempt to save any modified files and close. Please restart the application."

Saw this mentioned for practically every version of Prime here, but no solution ??

Windows 10, Office 2016

Hi,

 

according to https://support.ptc.com/WCMS/files/172595/en/Mathcad_Prime_Migration_Guide_en-US.pdf, page 63, Mathcad Prime 4.0 is compatible with Microsoft Excel 2003, 2007, 2010.

Apparently not with 'every', or you would not be complaining...

Anyway, you could try to 'reconfigure', Prime (move the config file, see here: https://community.ptc.com/t5/PTC-Mathcad-Questions/Mathcad-Prime-4-0-doesn-t-start-anymore/td-p/492614/page/3 )

If that does not help, re-install Prime.

If that does not help, definitely contact PTC support.

 

Success!
