Undo worksheet zoom level
The maximum number of levels for the Undo command is 100.
While you can increase or decrease the number of Undo levels in Excel by making some changes in the Windows
Registry Editor, Microsoft recommends that you do not increase the undo levels beyond 100 as this may adversely
affect Excel’s performance.
