Troubleshoot XLSHTML Files


Issues Opening XLSHTML Files

Microsoft Excel Disappeared

When you double-click your XLSHTML file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Microsoft Excel for %%os%% installed on your computer. The OS won't know what to do with your XLSHTML file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: If you know of another program that can open your XLSHTML file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.


Outdated Microsoft Excel

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Microsoft Excel installed that's incompatible with your Microsoft Excel HTML Spreadsheet type. Visit the Microsoft Corporation website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Microsoft Excel. The primary cause of this problem is that your Microsoft Excel HTML Spreadsheet file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft Excel than what's installed.


Tip: Investigate your XLSHTML file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Conclusion: The majority of XLSHTML file opening issues are due to not having the correct Microsoft Excel version installed.


Other Causes of XLSHTML File Opening Problems

You can still experience errors opening XLSHTML files even with the latest version of Microsoft Excel installed on your PC.
