Excel Workbook File Path issue

"I've been providing the correct file path to the 'Open Excel File' action in Appian for a robotic task, yet I keep receiving an error indicating an incorrect filepath. Has anyone else run into this problem? I'd be grateful for any advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this error."

    Where is your agent installed? Are you sure it has access to this file?

    OK. And you are sure that path to the Excel is OK?

    It seems that your are including the quotes (") in the file path parameter. 

    Even if there are blank spaces in the full path, it is not necessary to put the quotation marks
