I'm trying to open a 3MB Excel 2016 file in Excel 2013. The process hangs up at around 85% and freezes. Does anyone know why that would be?

I'm using Windows 10 Pro.

Hmmm. If you're opening this file off an email: try saving it first to your desktop. Before opening the file: Go into the developer tab and disable all macros, Go into Formulas and set calculations to manual.
