Excel - problem with opening files
I have a problem opening Excel files. APPVLP suddenly started showing up as the default program. Opening the file from Excel - Open File - and selecting the file from the list works, but double-click...
Deleted I have the exact same situation with 3 workstations which were using Office 2013, I've had to manually point .Xlsx and .Xls to Excel rather than APPVLP. But even still once this step was done, I would get "Operating system is not currently configured to run this application".
I could open Excel, on its own and then point it to the right file, that worked fine BUT, attempting to open a shortcut or an attachment gave me the above mentioned error message.
Running Windows 10 and 11 workstations, all had a recently installed updates from the 13th of Sept:
