If you work with Excel on a daily basis then chances are you are working with the same spreadsheets<\/a> each day.<\/p>\n

If you use the same file each time you open up Excel, then it might be easier for you to set up the file to automatically open every time you start Excel<\/strong> rather than opening it from a windows<\/a> file explorer each time.<\/p>\n

When Excel installs, it creates a folder called XLSTART<\/strong> and any files that you save in there will open up automatically when you start Excel.<\/p>\n
