Freeze Panes or Unfreeze Panes in Excel for Mac
View › Freeze Panes › Freeze Panes or Unfreeze Panes
On Windows, Alt W F F runs Freeze Panes or Unfreeze Panes. Excel for Mac shows KeyTips on the ribbon tabs but not in the menus, so the sequence can’t finish. With ALT, tap Option, then type W F F, just like on Windows.
