"Excel found unreadable content"
I received the message "Excel found unreadable content" on a file I had was
opening. I've looked online and found other people with the same problem, but the cause of it did not apply to the spreadsheet I was working on. In general, what can cause me to receive the error? Are there any steps I can take to avoid it? How can I recover my data? Thank you |

Used to be a known way to recover xl files and might still work. You might lose some formatting, but if it's the data you care about and you can't see it now, you have nothing to lose by trying :) |
