    After install of Win 10 downloaded Excel files "corrupt"

    I have the same problem since installing Windows 10. I get this message when I try to open files with Excel 2013. I can open them just fine in excel 2010 so I know the files are not corrupt. In my case this is an issue between Windows 10 and Excel 2013.
    I tried to repair excel 2013 and tried the steps in the link but nothing works.

    May 27 Windows update totally screwed up Excel and Word 2013

    Excel 2013 and Word 2013 now open with the green excel screen and the dots circling. Goes forever. Sometimes the file opens but Excel wont do anything. Finally, I get the screen that says Excel stopped working.

    How do I go back to the previous version of windows?

    Excel 2013: I lost current date hotkey

    Yes, I meant the shortcut is "CTRL+;" (means also "CTRL+SHIFT+,".)

    BTW, the current date hotkey is lost with the updates of Office in two computer and in a third when I didn't do any update is still working.

    The "insert time" still working fine, instead ("CTRL+.").

    Help, I cannot live without it. Seriously.

    On which keyboard layout is shift+, the same as ; ? Certainly not ENG US or ENG UK - on those the < character is shift+,

    Could this be a clue? Have you checked that you have the correct keyboard language installed for your layout?

    Ctrl+; works on all my machines and various versions of Excel - Office2000/Win7, 2007/Win10 and 2010/win10.

    I don't understand!!!

    I have italian layout, on my computer without the updates the CTRL+; still works, while, in the updated Office 2013 computers (different OSs) it stopped working!!!

    I check my friend of mine with Win 10 and Office 2013 with "Windows Update>Other Microsoft software updates checked" and even in his computer the CTRL+; didn't work. He is italian too.

    I am in trouble because I use that hotkey many many many times in a day.
