# Office-File-Explorer-v2

[![.Build validate](https://github.com/desjarlais/Office-File-Explorer-v2/actions/workflows/dotnet-desktop.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/desjarlais/Office-File-Explorer-v2/actions/workflows/dotnet-desktop.yml)

The purpose of this tool is to provide potential file specific troubleshooting of Office Open Xml formatted documents for Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook (.docx, .dotx, .docm, .doc, .xlsx, .xlst, .xlsm, .xls, .pptx, .pptm, .ppt, .msg). It also includes the ability to view the underlying xml files and modify them directly.

The tool can also perform a series of checks for known document corruptions in the underlying xml tags to possibly fix and make the file open in Office.

This tool is built for .NET 8 and you should be prompted to download from the Microsoft site if the runtime is not already installed.

## Note
Keep in mind if you use this on a production document and choose to use something that changes or removes data, you should be working on a copy of the file, not the original.
