Typical Microsoft Excel Errors Solved by Recovery for Excel

The following list represents most typical MS Excel problems that you can fix using Recovery for Excel.

  • Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were not possible. Excel attempted to recover your formulas and values, but some data may have been lost or corrupted.
  • "*.xls" cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location. Or, the server the document is stored on may not be responding.
  • The file is not in a recognizable format.
    If you know the file is from another program which is incompatible with Microsoft Office Excel, click Cancel, then open this file in its original application. If you want to open the files later in Microsoft Office Excel, save it in a format that is compatible, such as text format.
    If you suspect the file is damaged, click Help for more information about solving the problem.
    If you still want to see what text is contained in the file, click OK. Then click Finish in the Text Import Wizard.
  • Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications.
