Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Timesheet\App_Data\Template.xlsx'

Question

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application oXL = null;

Answer 1

Let me note that in my place, adding the c:\windows\syswow64\config\systemprofile\desktop directory didn't work.

The point is that WOW64 stands for Windows on Windows64, that means it actually applies for 32-bit programs running on the 64bit OS.

Since I have 64-bit Excel installed, the proper directory turned out to be the c:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop
