Error Description Excel Found Unreadable Content:
Excel found unreadable content in (filename.xls). Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook ? If you trust the source of this workbook, click yes.
I have Pressed Yes button and excel has generated this error:
1) Errors were detected in “filename.xls or xlsx”, ’but Microsoft office excel was able to open the file by making the repairs listed below, save the file to make these repairs permanent.
2) Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were not possible. Excel attempted to recover your formulas and values, but some data may have been lost or corrupted.
After getting this error when i have click on ok, my whole file formatting was gone, all my data was lost, my 5 MB file is showing me 405 KB data.
After that i have searched this issue in google and find various answers from so many sites and blogs, but then i have tried one thing from my own and that one solution worked for me.
