    Corrupted excel file

    Hi,

    I was working on excel sheet when my computer suddenly froze. After restarting the pc, i could not open the file anymore.
    I tried open & repair option but the file show gibberish characters.
    file was created with Excel 2007
    I'm sorry if i'm posting it in a wrong section but i really need the help of the forum to figure this out.

    I also tried couple different 3rd party apps, no luck
    Tried google drive and open it online, same issue.

    Out of ideas here
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Re: Corrupted excel file

    I tried with no success. I opened this file in a text editor and I am not sure it is even an Excel file. If you created it in Excel 2007, is there some reason you deliberately saved it in the 97-2003 format? I changed the extension to .xlsx and couldn't open it that way either.

    not really, didn't put much attention when i created it.
    Anyways, i'll just redo the work. Took me a full day but don't think i have a choice.
    Tried all the software i could find on the net, none work.

    Thanks for trying.
