Excel Stuck at Opening File 0%

[JohnMuley]

Yesterday, I have saved 1000+ customers data in MS Excel file. Today, when I’m trying to open Excel it stuck at opening file 0%. This message appears from last half an hour but still file not opened yet. To sort out this issue I have searched over Excel forums and search a few manual methods but still, it doesn’t work:

1.       Start Excel in safe mode

2.       Hardware graphics card disable

3.       Install latest updates

4.       Uninstall & Reinstall Microsoft Office

5.       Closed Excel from Task Manager

6.       Used free third party software’s

 

I have found few references from where I get all these solutions:

I forget to take back up of important data. Now I’m facing this kind of problem. I don’t want to spend dollars. Please help.

Which message do you get?

try opening that file on another machine with office installed to rule out the possibility of it being your machine configuration that is problematic

As the user did not post the way he solved the problem we are a bit lost

I've seen this in VBA when I'm using a file on a local drive. Usually closing the window makes it finish. I have yet to understand why it does this though.
