Default How do I get Excel to open a previously saved file?

With Excel not opened, all of sudden when I try to open an existing Excel
file, it only opens a blank workbook. I then have to repeat the action of
opening the file from the blank workbook. I am not sure what has happened but
I have always just been able to just click on the Excel file I want to open
and it would automatically open Excel and the intended file. Please advise
