    To resolve the error when opening an XLSB file with Appian RPA:

    1. Confirm that Microsoft Excel is installed and properly configured on the RPA agent's machine.
    2. Ensure the XLSB file is not open elsewhere or locked by another process.
    3. Verify that the "Open Workbook" component supports XLSB files.
    4. Check that you have a valid license for both Excel and the RPA component.
    5. Update Appian RPA and Excel to the latest versions if compatibility issues are suspected.
    6. Inspect the Excel file to ensure it's not corrupted.
    7. Adjust Excel's Trust Center settings to allow automation.
