Hi,
either you have deactivated the feature:
right on taskbar -> properties -> Tab "Start Menu" and the two privacy options should be checked
or you might perhaps run into an issue that a corrupted file in your app data folder has been created.
Please see details here BUT read through the comments - the detailed file names are different per computer - so move all files to another folder, open Excel, open a file, close Excel and then move the items back without overwriting (hence ignoring) the newly created files:
