Excel not functionioning

I need some help figuring out if I have a virus or if Excel has simply expired.  I have office 2019 and when I build a spreadsheet with formulae embedded in it, I can't get it to save and work again.  I save the file.  I reopen it and the format is changed and the formulae no longer exist.  What is going on?  This has been going on for a few months.

    NP123451330 Open Excel and go to Options (File, Options). Click the Save tab. Make sure the drop-down at the top called "Save files in this format" is set to "Excel Workbook (*.xlsx)":
