I have a corrupted excel file. What do I do to see if Libre Calc can open/fix it? New to LibreOffice! Thanks!

I have an Excel file that became corrupted and opens in “code.” Someone suggested to me that Libre Calc may be able to open it or fix it. I have downloaded the software and I am reading how to use it, but thought this might be the quickest way to find a solution. Thanks!

Have you tried starting LibreOffice, then using LibreOffice to try to open the problem file?

I have and it still opens in code. I didn’t know if there was something else to try. Thanks!
