I can still see charts imbedded into worksheets, just not on separate tabs in the worksheet. How can I get my charts back?

    Hi,

    In answer to the above 3 points :

    1 - most recent version is already loaded.

    2 - I cannot follow the instructions to regress the Excel version. Running the office deployment tool exe file just redirects me to the Microsoft store which is not a scenario described in the instructions.

    3 - Effect is still there using web version of Excel.

    Regards

    Simon

    Hi Jerry Lilly,

    I understand your concern, losing chart sheets (charts on separate tabs) can be confusing, especially when embedded charts are still visible. Let’s narrow this down a bit first:

    1. Which app are you using to open the file? (for example: Excel desktop app, Excel for the web, or another spreadsheet program)
    2. Where is the file stored? (local PC, OneDrive, USB, etc.)
    3. When you right‑click on any tab at the bottom (if available), do you see an “Unhide” option? If yes, are any missing charts listed there?
    4. Did this issue start after a specific action (such as saving, sharing, or opening the file on another device)?

    Looking forward to your update.
