The Excel files were not processed correctly.
The Excel files were not processed correctly.
hello guys, I have this really weird problem on my PC. I want it to open .xlsx files in microsoft excel, but for some stupid reason my PC won't let me open those files with excel. I managed to find the setting to change the default program for opening this kind of files, but it will only let me select wordpad, even though I have excel on my pc, or I can search in the app store but I can't find excel that way, probably because I already have it. I am using windows 10 and microsoft excel 2010. edit: the actual problem is in the fact that I can't change my windows setting, not the emailed files. also, microsoft office (the entire package) was given to us by the company that my father works for, could that be causing problems?
.xlsx refers to the Office 2007 file type. Deleting hidden files might prevent it from opening properly.
Microsoft usually creates two files when saving a document. One appears for opening with some details, and another stays hidden, holding other files. If the hidden file disappears, you can't access it. Another issue could be corruption. Did the original file suddenly shut down while editing? Was the storage drive working properly? After some time, chances of fixing it are low.
