    I have gone through this same issue and I would like to suggest you the following steps and so that you can solve your issue. To do these go through the following steps. Go to the start icon and after that make hit on the run. Now under the run type Regedit and then hit the ok button. Now under the registry key windows go to the following location: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Excel.Sheet.8/shell/Open/commend: and after that on the right side add %1 on the following command. First you need to double click on the command and after that enter the following “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\EXCEL.EXE" /e "%1" and after that rename it as commend 2. Once you finish these steps and after that again restart your system and after that go through your issue.

    There is another way to open your Excel spreadsheets into the shape you want. If you've tried the above method, then you might notice that the two leaves that appear either horizontally or vertically, but not allowed to move their pieces as desired. What if you want to do all their leaves appear in tile or cascade? To do this, open the two files, click the View tab, under the Window "Arrange All" and choose tiles, vertical, horizontal or cascade, and click the OK button and after that go through your issue.
