.xls files will open with IE. Need to change file association, but excel does not appear as an option.

Excel files are currently set to open with internet explore as default. I went to change the file association, and although my copy of excel is fully licensed and operational, excel does not appear as an available program. Has anyone experience this problem? Thank you.

Right click on a .xls file and choose open with > choose default program. Then click Browse.

Navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office or C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft Office for 64-bit Windows versions.

Here is an office folder. Office12 for Office 2007 and Office14 for Office 2010. Go in the right folder and thin Excel.exe.
