Excel Download Windows 7

[Octavis Uberstine]

Iwant excel to open multiple spreadsheets in completely separate windows. I don't want to view side by side or anything I just want them to be on completely different windows. For example, when I hover over excel in my desktop taskbar, I want all of my spreadsheets to show. Thank you!

You can make changes in one window and Close it. Since it's just another view of the same file, no one will ask you to save (you have another window still open). Changes done in ne window will be automatically reflected on the other window.

Like Theo_Bear and and Nabil, your question is not totally clear to me either. If by "multiple spreadsheets" you actually mean "multiple workbooks", it sounds as if you want to know how to open each Excel workbook in its own dedicated instance, so they show up as such on your task bar as you mentioned. If that is what you want, this picture shows 2 methods for achieving that objective.

I suddenly had Office 2010 stop opening different Excel Files (ok worksheets) in their own instance, when they were doing it previously every time. Not sure what happened to make them stop doing it, but suddenly I could only view one at a time. If I went to File Explorer and double-clicked they would open and take the place of the one I was looking at. I can see there are 2 open only by looking at the task bar, where they are tiled. Your instruction to go to Start and then Alt-Click Excel did open a new instance and I can then view the to workbooks side by side as their own instance.

My Work laptop uses 365 in Windows 11 (yuck) after a recent upgrade from 10 got pushed out. However, it behaves like I want, and opens a new instance every time also. No, I don't open them in Edge. It's set to open in Desktop App. I did nothing to set the behavior, it has just always been that way. It's only my Win 7 Desktop that started this weird behavior.

I just upgraded to Windows 11. Now, when I opened my excel files in my QNAP NAS, excel showed document recovery message: "Excel has recovered the following files. Save the ones you wish to keep.". I tried to click the file to recover it but it has no response. Excel stopped there. I had to close Excel. I tried to reopen Excel and reopen the same file. It repeated. I could not open the file.

Initially, I suppose my excel file is damaged but I don't know why because I edited the file the night before. It had not problem. Finally, I copied the excel file from my NAS to my local drive in my laptop (i.e. the one I connected to my NAS). I opened the file in the local drive with Excel. It worked. I had no problem. Why?

@nsrumschlag I have exactly the same problem and it is related to the windows 11 install. All xlsx files now show with an IE symbol and will try to open in internet explorer (without success of course). The workaround is to right click on the file and select "open with" excel. That is necessary for all files with an xlsx extension. Files with an xls extension, however (older version of excel), show with the excel symbol and open directly. Once an xlsx file is open, saving it as a excel 2009 version with an xls extension solves the "open with" problem but some functions are obviously lost.

@SergeiBaklan Good Morning. I tried to add the .xlxs option to settings and set the default app to Excel however it still tries to open the file with Internet Explorer. Seems like an issue with Win 11 as I am not seeing this on a Win 10 computer at the same client.

@Sepharo I have tried the "Right-Click" and "Open with Excel", but it fails. I tried "xls" and "xlsx" files and neither will open. WORD works as it normally would. I can start Excel and it shows up to allow me to open a file. If I click on starting a blank new worksheet, Excel shutsdown. The ones I try to open show up in the "recently opened" list, but I still can't open any.

@rajuann check online for commandline parameters. I think "/e" as the one I tried. To do this, find the shortcut for starting Excel and add those two characters outside the quotes(I think), skipping my quote marks. Experiment. I don't have my laptop with me it the moment.

Thanks @Mauro_Gerber and @txnelson for the proposals. In my case "run program" did work after some correction of the path string (fileshare starting with // on windows 10), the proposal with "web" did not work, I tried several times, it looks elegant.

The Windows collection for the Application object contains all the windows in the application, whereas the Windows collection for the Workbook object contains only the windows in the specified workbook.

The window caption is the text shown in the title bar at the top of the window when the window isn't maximized. The caption is also shown in the list of open files on the bottom of the Windows menu. Use the Caption property to set or return the window caption. Changing the window caption doesn't change the name of the workbook.

OK, actually, just before posting this I wanted to investigate it some more. I found an answer, and am posting it below. ...no need to upvote. I am just placing this here in case anyone else runs into this problem.

Edit: I am accepting Scott's answer, since I want to give him credit for an answer that could apply given a problem as described in my question, but please also read my answer, as it could also apply (and in my case it did apply.)

My universal method for a misbehaving window is using the Windows + UP-ARROW to maximize on the current display (or left or right arrow, if that's your style) and then pulling it down by its title bar, thus, switching to windowed mode again, then moving it to the desired spot.

There is a bug in Microsoft Excel that sometimes leaves a window displayed off screen where you cannot reach the top of the window to move it back into view. This can often be fixed by going to the "View" menu in Excel, click on "Arrange All" then switch the way that the windows are arranged. If it is in "Tiled" try "Horizontal" or switch it to a different mode. It doesn't seem to matter what it was or what you change it to, but this act of changing how the windows are arranged usually will clear up the mess and bring the window back into full view.

Our windows are constructed from two panes of A-rated glass separated by a layer of air. This structure better insulates your property with fewer draughts and noticeably less condensation in the mornings, as well as helping to insulate your home from outside noise. Double glazed units also provide a higher level of security for your home.

From near-invisible joints, the elegance of the run-through sash horn, to the curvy ovolo frame shape, these are just a handful of the many clever details that work together to create the most graceful and advanced sash window on the market.
