Excel 2016 Mac OS latest update

After the latests update to Excel 2016, I get the following error.

Sorry, we couldn't find ﷽﷽﷽﷽﷽﷽﷽﷽tions/Microsoft Excel.app//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////Contents/Frameworks/ATP.framework/Versions/A/Resources/en.lproj. Is it possible it was moved, renamed or deleted?

If I click ok, Excel starts up normally. However, when I try to use the Data Analysis add-in, I get the same error. I can get rid of the error if I disable the Analysis Toolkpak add-in, but then I don't get to use the Data Analysis features, which are essential to me. I removed Excel 2016 from my computer and reinstalled it and everything went back to normal. Except, that I went ahead and applied the latest update, and again, the error came back. This has happened twice to me.

I believe that the latest (last?) update to Excel 2016 is buggy. I know it's end of life, but could someone at Microsoft make sure that an update doesn't break perfectly good software?

    @Fernando Colina

    I notice the issue in this post is similar to the one in another post "Corrupt data analysis Excel OSX" of yours, and I’m glad to see that you have solved the issue.
    As the best practice, I will merge the two posts.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    Regards,
    Erin
