Microsoft Excel missing after update On July 15, 2022, an update was performed on my MacBookPro. After that, MS Excel is missing. How can I restore it? I still have Word and PowerPoint. Thanks!

Excel is trying to open non .xlsx files I recently updated my MS Excel to 16.73 and when I try to open the program, it immediately tries to open files in my documents folder, regardless of the document format, and I get a string of pop up boxes telling me a file isn't compatible with Excel. I deleted the program as advised, restarted the MacBook, reinstalled, and same thing. Tonight I downloaded the Excel update, which claimed to have bug fixes, and it is the same thing. Is there a way to delete not just the app but also the file associated with the app and start completely fresh, meaning that it says "Get" in the app store as opposed to having the download cloud? No issues with Word or Powerpoint, but Excel is essentially useless now. Upgrading to Ventura made no difference whatsoever. Thanks.

Excel may have been uninstalled- try hitting CMD + Space to open Spotlight, then search for it. If it doesn't pop up, you may have to download it again.

If it does pop up, the default app may have been changed. Simply right-click on the Excel file, then click 'Get Info'. Look where it says 'Open with:' and look for Excel in the dropdown menu. Then, click 'Change All' to make it the default app.
