Windows 10: Saving excel files on network drive issue

After upgrading win7 to win10 , we are unable to save the excel files on the network drive, although we can save locally or save as on the network drive without any issue. we are using office 2010

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 files only open/save slow on network share

• Opening any Excel file, even an empty Excel file from any network share located on any machine on this domain network results in slow performance. When opening a file, Excel will state: "Downloading: <path name>", then will say "Processing...", then will
  say "Opening: <path name>", then will say "Processing...", and then finally opens. Once open the file performs normally.
  
• The Save process is equally slow for any Excel file saving to a Network Share
• Opening these same files locally on any machine is fast.
• Opening any other file type on these shares is fast, including Word, pdf, jpg, etc. of much larger size than the Excel files.
  
• The slow performance is seen on all machines on the network.

It seems like this would be a network issue but I'm not sure where to start. Again it only affects Excel files, nothing else. But it affects all Excel files.

Some machines here are Windows 7 running Office 2010, but the same slow behavior is seen on Windows 10 machines running Office 365.

 

Cannot save files to network drives anymore

Hi Brendo,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forums.

• Which account was used to sign in to Office, when the user attempted to save files to the mapped drive?
  

This could be due to the incorrect user information used. You may want to try the steps listed below and check if it works for you:

• Open Word 2016, and navigate to
  File > Account.
  
• Sign out of all the accounts under User Information.
  
• Restart Office, navigate to
  File > Account.
  
• Sign In to use the work email for user information.
  
• Now, try saving the Office documents to the mapped drive.
  

If the issue persists, as the issue is related to Server, I suggest you to post your query in the
TechNet
forums, where we have support professionals who are well equipped with the knowledge on Servers to assist you with this.
