Opening an excel file protected with password

Hello people,

I couldn’t find an answer specific to my problem so here I am.
I try to open an excel file using the “use excel file” activity in an “excel Process Scope”.

The file is protected with a password. I specified the password in the property panel in the “password” field.

When I execute, I get an error message saying “Unable to open file. Reasons : file is corrupted, already used by an other processus or you’re not allowed to open it.”

Anybody has the solution ?

Thanks so much in anticipation!

Use KILL PROCESS activity before to the excel activity where in ProcessName property mention as “Excel” and then give a try
