• Unable to open external drive XLSX files

  Hello

  I have a macbook El Capitan having installed Office 365, with the latest version of excel running. Recently, I have been unable to open excel (.xlsx) files from my external hard drive because it gives me a message stating that it is corrupt and offering a repair option - which also fails. I can however;

  -Open the same file on a windows PC 10

  -Open the file in numbers

  -Open any other file on the hard drive (document images, PDFs, Word etc.) in native mode without any problem

  -C' is essential, I can copy the file to the desktop and it opens in Excel without any problem.

  I am at a loss of what it might be.

  Thank you

  (my apologies if this is in the wrong section)

  It seems that there is a problem with the Mac from Microsoft Excel version, opening files from an external drive. Looks like a Microsoft problem that should be reported to them.

• I am unable to open and copy the file encrypted after formatting my computer

  I just format my computer before formatting, I take any backup of the drive c. but 1 file is encrypted on my backup now, I'm unable to decrypt this file and is also impossible to copy and open this folder. Please help me with this.

  I assume you have XP Pro and that you encrypted files by using the Encrypting File System (EFS).  When you use EFS, the these files decryption key is stored encrypted with your certificate store.  When you use EFS, you * MUST * back up your certificates or risk permanently losing access to your encrypted files.  Details are provided in this article which is required reading if you use EFS:

  "Best Practices for encrypting file system"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/223316 >

  Jump down to the paragraph "why you should back up your certificates.
  Line background here, is that you have two options to recover the access to these files.  The first is to restore your certificate from the backup of the certificate that you created by the article above before you reformat your computer.  The second option is to completely restore your previous system from a backup of the image-style you did your system before reformatting and reinstalling.  Otherwise, I fear that you have permanenty lost access to these files.

  EFS is affectionately known as the 'Recycle Bin delay' in this forum.

• How to keep each "open in Windows Mail file"?

  I use "Windows Mail" folders as a workbook.  But when I open or try to put something in a folder it opens and it takes forever to get to where I want to msg to go to.  Is there anyway I keep opening for 100% and just open the subfolder that I need?

  Why have they changed it in Outlook Express, that was such a good and well-organized program?

  Thanks in advance for the help!

  If you have 10 subfolders under one main folder, you do not see them all or none. It was the same in OE. If you want to 'post a message', expand the folder tree and drag the message into the folder wanted.
   
  Unless you make to each folder a subfolder of the folder above instead of the main folder, it should not take longer to get where you're going, regardless of the number of subfolders.

  Hello

  1 how long have you been faced with this problem?
  2. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?
  3. What is the brand and model of the computer?
  4. who help and support files are you referring to?
  5. what exactly happens when you try to open it? You get the error message?

  cssauth.exe is related to the Client Security Solution.

  Step 1: Try disabling startup cssauth.exe in the configuration of the system.

  Here's how:

  1. click on start > run.
  2. type msconfig and press ENTER.
  3. click on the Startup tab.
  4 locate cssauth.exe, and clear the check box for this.
  5 restart the computer and check for the issue.

  Step 2: If you still get the same error at startup then perform the clean boot on the computer.

  From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

  Reference:

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. click on start and then click Run.

  The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

  3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.

  I would also ask you to contact the manufacturer of the computer because the problem is with the client security software that is provided by them.

• When I went to open Outlook Express a pop-up message reported a problem and said he had to close (which is). Since then, I was unable to open my mail.

  When I went to open Outlook Express a pop-up message reported a problem and said he had to close (which is).  Since then, I was unable to open my mail.  What can I do?

  original title: exit express does not open.  What can I do?

  If Outlook Express does not open, Folders.dbx is corrupt.

  In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

  The path to the message will be very similar to this:

  C:\Documents and Settings\Your User of utilisateur\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\ {long string of letters & numbers} \Microsoft\Outlook Express

  With OE closed, find the Folders.dbx file and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.

  Note these possible side effects:

  When you re - start OE, it will build a new index of all *.dbx files it can read and create a new Folders.dbx. However, understand that you will lose the mail directory structure and message rules will probably have to be edited.
