Excel 2010 - Saving automatically as .xlsx

Lucena · 2018-06-05 09:29:03

Hi everyone! When I create a new file in Excel 2010 and then save, it automatically saves as .xls, whereas I want to save as .xlsx Is there a way to get it to automatically save as .xlsx? Obviously I can select xlsx every time, but there must be a quicker way?
