Hi - I have a corrupted Excel file which I can't repair. Cannot attach the file writes that "The file type you are attempting to upload is not allowed." When I open the file writes that "cannot open the file because the file format or the file extension is invalid. Make sure the file is not corrupted and the file name extension matches the format".It's Excel 2010 . Thanks.
