Excel File Cannot Be Accessed The File May Be Corrupted

to highlight it, then selecting "Get Info" from the "File" menu at the top of the screen in Finder, to see if you have "Read & Write" permissions to this/these files.Check whether your drive have been corrupted, and a permissions repair should fix this if it is the case.Check to see if it's just a permissions problem by trying to open the file in your text editor. You shouldn't see a nice, ordered spreadsheet when you do this (what you should see is random garbage on the screen), but you shouldn't get an error message about not being able to open the file or files.Try to copy the file out onto your Desktop and try to open it from there (a copy of the file and not the original), check to see whether it will give the same error message.Jaynet Zhang TechNet Community Support

Sorry There was an error emailing this page. Arturleon Dec 25, 2014 Windows How to fix - .xls file cannot be accessed. I`m using Win 7 and ms Office 2007. I saved some Excel files on my pc (.xls). It worked, everything was ok until now. Today I can`t open it. It is became corrupted somehow and i`m in a deep upset. An error message appeared: .xls file cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only or you may be trying to access a read-only location, or the server the doc is stored on may not be responding. I'm searching a quick but effective method to fix this problem.

The file may be corrupted, located on a server that is not responding, or read-only Reply like 0 dislike 0 flag Choose as best answer KlarkCirk 12/26/2014 First of all click on Properties and look at the Attribute setting "Read Only" - uncheck it if it's checked, and press ok. In fact the most common scenario where this whole read-only problem comes up is when email folders are copied to cd for backup or for moving to a different machine. So, after copying files from cd you still must reset the read-only attribute if you want to be able to write to them. Reply like 7 dislike 1 flag Answer this Know someone who can answer this?
