All of a sudden I cannot open any of my excel files from saved folders unless
I open the excel program first. I have already right clicked on files to
properties to reset Open With and that did not work. I am not sure what else
to do.
 
In Excel, click on Tools | Options | General | uncheck the
"Ignore other applications" box | OK.

If the above doesn't help, then close Excel and re-register Excel
in Windows by clicking on Start | Run | Open: excel /unregserver
| OK | Open: excel /regserver | OK.
