Hi,
I am converting the attached two XLS files into XLSM format, Then if i try to open the output XLSM files, They are not opening.

If I try opening the XLSM files from MS Excel 2019 - Standard Edition, they are not opening and no error message is showing.

If I try opening the XLSM files from MS Excel 2019 - Professional plus Edition, am error popup with message “The file couldn’t open in protected view” is displaying.

@vedavyas.velaga,

Thanks for the template files

Please notice, I am able to reproduce the issue as you mentioned by converting your template files to XLSM file format. I found the output XLSM file is corrupted and MS Excel could not open the output XLSM files into it for most cases:
e.g.
Sample code:

Aspose.Cells.Workbook workbook = new Aspose.Cells.Workbook("e:\\test2\\TemplateFile-1-XLS-XLSM-Converted-File-Not-Opening.xls");
//Aspose.Cells.Workbook workbook = new Aspose.Cells.Workbook("e:\\test2\\WSChangesWithRiskChecks-10-2.xls");
workbook.Save("e:\\test2\\out1.xlsm", Aspose.Cells.SaveFormat.Xlsm);;

I have logged a ticket with an id “CELLSNET-51899” for your issue. We will look into it soon.

Once we have an update on it, we will let you know.
