Problems previewing Excel and Powerpoint files

The only thing preventing me from using XYplorer all the time is reliable previewing of MS Office files. I can preview MS Word files without a problem, but with Excel and Powerpoint files, I get a dialog box from (I think) Excel "Do you want to open or save this file", same for Powerpoint files. I have Office 2013 running on Windows 8.1. Does anyone else have this problem, or is it my installation?

Below is an example of the .xlsx preview dialog. Task manager says the Office programs are 32-bit. Thanks.

I can reproduce it. It has been this way on my system for quite a while.
Same thing happens with xlsx or xls and ppt.
Win7 x64 running office 2010 32 bit.
