Cannot deal with Excel file

Good morning everyone.

I am facing issues when trying to deal with Excel files, whatever I want to open or upload them. The error is shown in the following screenshot.

I am also carrying on the Academy in Uipath, precisely the course “Level 1 - Foundation Training - 2018.3”, which in Lesson 9 explains a trick on how to avoid to install Excel and continuing to use it.
The trick is to unflag the box “Visible” in the Properties panel of the Excel application scope . It’s useless to say that it didn’t work for me.

I have the Community Edition License, so I can’t open a ticket for UiPath.

I hope someone else has faced this issue, thanks in advance,
Livia

your path is .csv but not excel file.

you should use read csv activities

Sorry, the screenshot was just to show which box I was referring at.
Anyway, the error appears even with the extension xlsx
