not possible to open xlsx nor docx files since updating to recent macOS version 15.0.1

dear all,


since the latest upgrade in macOS I am not able to open xlsx nor docx files with numbers resp pages?


I do not want to purchase ms office as it is too tedious and taken over


Best,


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.0

does not work as it does not recognise the xlsx nor docx files in numbers resp. pages
i.e. neither by "open with" nor wishing the app by "open file"


You don't see the .xlsx files in Finder?


If you do see them, select one (in Finder, not Numbers), right-click, choose Open With and choose Numbers.app.
