Try this if using the desktop app
1.) Log out of Teams and exit the Teams program completely from the Task Bar
2.) Flush the Teams cache (https://commsverse.blog/2018/09/28/clear-the-microsoft-teams-client-cache/)
3.) Fire up Teams, Login again
4.) Try to open the excel in Teams
If you are using the web app, try downloading the file out and re-uploading the file and see if it works then
Let me know how it goes. Hope it manages to fix your issue
Best, Chris

I was able to rename the %appdata%\microsoft\teams\cache\index file to indexold
rename the %appdata%\microsoft\teams\Service Worker\{GUID} folder to {GUID}OLD
When Teams is started again it will replace these files and everything for me worked.
Good Luck
