Excel file opens with Internet Explorer

Have just completed an excel sheet and saved it; on going back to it in documents find it has been saved with the Internet Explorer icon at the front and .xlsx at the rear, cannot open it. I am using Microsoft 2010 word and excel; have no problem-saving word documents. Thank you.

Windows 10, I believe?

Start > Settings > Apps > Default apps > (Bottom) Choose default apps by file type > (Might take a minute to load) On the left find .xlsx file type > to the right of .xlsx left click whatever icon is there (probably Internet Explorer) the select Excel.
