I have about 30+ hidden sheets.

Normally on clicking unhide, a dialogue box opens. And suppose there are 8 sheets with sheet name starting with letter "C".
To unhide specific sheet, I would continue typing "C" and then selection would move to hidden sheets with name starting with "C".
I would press OK when selection is moved to sheet which I want to unhide.

Issue:
Recently I have noticed that though there are 8 sheets starting with "C", when I try to unhide, only first sheet starting with "C" is selected. If I type "C" again, selection is not moving.

Because of this, I have to manually scroll down and find the sheet which I want to unhide.

Some of my colleagues have been facing this issue recently.

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
I confirm what you describe, quite annoying. But TBH I don't use that option often enough to know the previous behavior!
