Microsoft Excel Cannot Access The File When Saving
Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'c:\myDir\MyFile.xlsx'. There are several possible reasons: • microsoft excel: microsoft excel cannot access the file The file name or path does not exist. • The file is being used by another program. • The microsoft excel cannot access the file sharepoint 2010 workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook. The last line of the code below is the line that throws the exception Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application xlApp = https://forums.asp.net/t/1740537.aspx?Microsoft+Excel+cannot+access+the+file+is+solved+by+creating+a+folder+ new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application(); string filename = @"c:\myDir\MyFile.xlsx" Console.WriteLine("Exists: " + File.Exists(filename).ToString()); var wb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(filename); The message suggests that it can't find my file that I am trying to open, so I made sure none of these were the issue. However, the actual problem is not anything to do with my file. Instead I just had to create a directory called Desktop at the following path: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\Desktop http://justgeeks.blogspot.com/2012/10/troubleshooting-microsoft-excel-cannot.html It is worth noting I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 and is a 64-bit operating system. If you are running a 32-bit OS you would need to change make sure there is a desktop directory here: C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\Desktop I noticed that I needed to be admin to follow the path above, but it didn't seem to matter from a code perspective. However, if this solution doesn't work, I would suggest playing with the permissions to that Desktop directory just to make sure since that is what I did to start with and then un-did my changes to the permissions. Also, I am running Windows 7 64-bit on my laptop where I am developing and I did not have any issues if when that directory did NOT exist. I don't know why this seems to be particular to the server environment. Thanks to this discussion that gave me this solution.

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up Cannot open Excel file in C# up vote 6 down vote favorite 2 I have the following C# function in my project, which is supposed to open and return an existing Excel workbook object: Application _excelApp; // ... private Workbook OpenXL(string path, string filename) { try { if (_excelApp == null) { _excelApp = new Application(); } Workbook workBook = _excelApp.Workbooks.Open(path + filename, // Name 0, // Do not update links true); // Open read-only return workBook; } catch (Exception e) { _excelApp = null; throw new ArgumentException("Error opening " + path + filename, e); } } But when I run it with "C:\" and "scratch.xlsx", the Open() call throws the following error: Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'C:\scratch.xlsx'. There are several possible reasons: • The file name or path does not exist. • The file is being used by another program. • The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook. The file and path does exist: I have copied the path from the error message and pasted it into a command window and the file loads up in Excel. The file is not locked: Excel can open it fine but my program cannot, even straight after a reboot. I am not trying to save it, I am trying to open it so the last option is irrelevant. I am at a loss to understand why this simple piece of code is not working. Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated. [edit] I have now tried opening that file from my personal network drive (M:) and from a USB stick. All to no avail. The application is actually a Windows service, running under the local system account and generating reports. It currently write CSV reports with no access pr
