Default Formula to change scientific number to regular number or text

See if this is what you're looking for:

=LEFT(TEXT(A1,"0.00E+00"),FIND("E",TEXT(A1,"0.00E+ 00"))-1)*10&"E"&MID(TEXT(A1,"0.00E+00"),FIND("+",TEXT(A1 ,"0.00E+00"))+1,99)-1

"Hi I have a very large column with scientifc numbers that I would like to
change them to a regular number or text.
I don't want to change them manually one by one. Is there any formula to do
that. See example below
column A is the scientific number and I want regular number or text in
column A."
Thank you very much for your help
