Scenario: I open and save encrypted XLS file using Aspose.Cells 8.6.0.7. Then try to open it by MS Excel.


Issue: File is opened in protected view (Excel 2013).

Code

new Aspose.Cells.Workbook(“xls_O.xls”, new LoadOptions() {
Password = “1”
}).Save(“resaved.xls”);

Hi Alex,

Thanks for using Aspose.Cells.

MS Excel shows such error because we used XOR Encryption to encrypt the file in older version.
