The XLK file extension stands for Microsoft Excel Backup File. It is a backup file created by Microsoft Excel to store a copy of an existing Excel file (such as XLSX or XLS) to safeguard against data loss or corruption. This feature, which dates back to earlier versions of Excel, allows users to recover their work in case the original file becomes unusable. While newer Excel versions rely more on autosaving and version history, the XLK backup remains a useful tool for data recovery and archival purposes.
The XLSM file extension stands for Microsoft Excel Macro-Enabled Spreadsheet. It allows users to automate tasks via macros, enhancing productivity in complex data manipulation and repetitive operations. Introduced with Excel 2007 as part of the Office Open XML format, XLSM files support the embedding of VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) macros within spreadsheets. This format offers advanced functionalities for financial analysis, data modeling, and automation within the Microsoft Excel environment, optimizing efficiency for professional use.
