    Password protected files appeared on my PC


    I was doing a regular full system scan with Bitdefender and it notified me that were password protected files now on my PC. I'm not sure what the password is or how to scan them.

    :)

    Unable to open a password protected Excel file

    I just got a HTC 8X phone and when I try to open a password protected Excel file instead of prompting me for the password I just get a message that says, "Can't open. Password-protected files can't be opened". Any suggesting for working with password protected
    files on WP8?
