DhirenMehtaMSFT Thanks. I will see if I'm able to open a ticket. I created the sharepoint page and each section. They are all quicklinks added the same way. The two attachments here show each file (as quicklinks) all adding the same. One loads in the viewer, one loads the other way. I'm at a loss.

In my initial testing, I did test Quick links using XLSX and XLS extension types and saw the same results, so didn't think of asking the distinction but glad you caught it.
