Microsoft Excel Backup File (.xlk)

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.

Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Template - Legacy (.xlt)

The XLT file extension stands for Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Template. It is used in Microsoft Excel versions 97 through 2003 to create templates containing default formatting, layout, and formulas. These templates serve as a starting point for generating new spreadsheets with consistent design and structure. Although replaced by the XLTX format in Excel 2007 and later versions, XLT files are still supported for backward compatibility.
