Windows 10: Excel 2017 & Windows 10

Since using Edge I cannot open any Excel files or any that are sent to me They have a x in the bottom left of the file. Help please before I pull out my hair.


Please note that I do not open the Excel files in live mail but that was the only box that was available for me to click if not I could not post my question. I try to open them via my Gmail as the Excel file was attached to an email.


I have also tried to update one of my own Excel documents using via Word & Excel but Excel doesn't work there either.


Thanks.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

CSV files used to open in Excel....not now!


Hi, you say Excel is installed. Does it run normally?

You can't find Excel in (an unspecified) list of applications. I don't know which list that is for sure.

For example, in the list related to:
- rt click a file. Open With
- this list:



- this list:




- some other list...

If Excel does not appear in the above, I suggest you repair your office installation.

Maybe the above gives you some ideas. Otherwise please post a screenshot of where you think you should see it but don't. Thanks.
