    Hi GH_63,

    Office XML Handler is the display name of MSOXMLED.EXE, which should be available in C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE15 or C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE15, depending on the version of your operating system.

    Please let us know if you have any further concerns.

    Best Regards,

    Nathan

    Hi GH_63,

    Thanks for your query in this community.

    You are using the correct method of trying to change the default application to open XML file. But per your description, you failed in doing so.

    Could you provide us with more details on it? Did you receive an error message? Or it can't be opened via Office XML handler?

    Regards,

    Alex Chen

    You can follow the steps below to see the result:

    1. Windows search Excel and right click it to choose "open file location", copy the file location.
    2. Right click a xml file> Open with> choose another app.
    3. Find Excel and tick the "Always use this app to open .xml files".

    If you cannot see Excel in the list, click More app> Look for more app on this PC> paste the Excel file location in it.

    1. Double click Excel and open the .xml file in Excel, close the file.
    2. Repeat the step 3 and Excel should be in the list.
