How to open a .xlsx file?
Can't open an .xlsx file on your computer? This is not a problem if you figure out what the file is. After all, we can say with almost complete confidence that you have dealt with files of this format at least once.
XLSX is a spreadsheet file that is created in Microsoft Excel, starting with version 2007. The file contains a set of data linked to specific cells. These cells can contain both data entered manually and calculations performed using certain formulas.
In addition, the .xlsx file may include graphs, charts, images, and options for sorting and grouping data.
At first, the format was positioned as a new replacement for the outdated .xls document format, and it could only be opened in Microsoft Office. However, some time later the format became publicly available, making it possible to use third-party applications for viewing and editing.
There are several programs with which you can open, view and, if necessary, edit this type of file.
On the official Microsoft website there is a free Microsoft Excel Viewer program that allows you to view and print documents in .xlsx format without editing.
Among the free analogues of the Microsoft office suite, which allow you not only to view, but also to carry out full work with the document, it is worth highlighting LibreOffice, Gnumeric and OpenOffice.org.
If your computer already has a Microsoft office suite, but an older version (for example, 2003), then you need to download a special compatibility package from the official Microsoft website that will allow you to view and edit new document formats.
