How do make Cmd + S files save to the file I opened with numbers with its existing format/extension?
I usually open .XLSX files with Numbers for quick edit.
However doing Cmd + S makes Numbers prompt to save the file with .numbers extension. How do I override this behavior?
Numbers does not open Excel files directly. A new Numbers document is created.
- Numbers can convert Excel files to Numbers documents when opened, which is a lossy process, and
- Numbers can export to Excel, which is a lossy process.
Since both steps are lossy, it’s required to be explicit.
