    Excel 2016 crashing while trying to save the xlsm file in the network folder


    Hi there. We have an issue with Excel 2016 and xlsm file in the network folder. While we trying to save this file Excel closing. In the Event Viewer we see an application error with the Exception code: 0xc0000005 Tried to reinstall Office, update video driver, add registry key Disable Acceleration, but no luck. This file saves normally in the Desktop, for example. Maybe somebody expirienced such issue. How we can fix it?

    Excel Version 1908/Default Save is XLSM???

    Jim,

    Just in case this is significant for anything you do with your Excel files
    - xlsm are not simply 'xlsx with macros enabled', the two types have very different internal structures
    - Excel can open, edit, save both types and can let you swap around between them when using SaveAs
    - xlsx files can be created using File explorer's context menu, New entry
    - only Excel itself can create xlsm files
    - Many third-party applications can open, edit & save xlsx files but not all can even open xlsm files

    You might never need to know any of this but the wording you used concerned me.

    All the best,
    Denis

    Excel 2016 and O365 Excel file contents do not index when saving to a network drive

    Hello Mala.S

    I have tried that as well.

    The only option left is to check on the Network drive and see if the file type 2016 excel / 2016 excel macro enabled is on the list of files to be indexed.

    What is the file type extension that I should be checking for or adding to the list?

    the Network drive might be older and may not have the file type on the list.



    from the property list this is the content type of the file..

    application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet

    application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.macroEnabled.12

    Thank you.

    Excel 2016 crashing while trying to save the xlsm file in the network folder

    Win-10 FILE EXPLORER opens Excel .xls files but now, suddenly and uniquely, fails to open excel files with an .xlsm extension.

    Hello all

    For the last 3 months my new Win-10 FILE EXPLORER has opened both Excel.xls and Excel.xlsm files without a hitch.

    Suddenly, several days ago, the FILE EXPLORER stopped opening Excel.xlsm
    files while, surprisingly, continuing to open Excel.xls
    files.

    The FILE EXPLORER error during the failure to open .xlsm files is - “not responding”.

    Importantly the difficulty in opening
    .xlsm files is idiosyncratic to the FILE EXPLORER since when I navigate to the
    .xlsm files using the Excel 2007 app they open without a hitch.

    It appears that the file extension, and not the file content, is causing the .xlsm problem. This is because when make a new excel file (containing only a formula summing two numbers) and save it once as .xls and then again as .xlsm the FILE EXPLORER uniquely
    fails to open the .xlsm file.

    Despite the .xlsm designation neither of these files contains a macro.

    The macro TRUST setting is the same for the two file formats.

    Incidentally, I should note the the FILE EXPLORER "Rename" function also fails with Excel.xlsm files. The FILE EXPLORER works fine with Word, ppt and access applications.

    It seems likely that some kind of Win-10 setting has been altered but that would be well beyond my pay grade.

    Any help is deeply appreciated
