FAQs
Is my data safe with this tool?
All processing occurs client-side; files never leave your browser. We don't store any data, ensuring complete privacy. Your original file remains unchanged unless you download the cleaned version.
Can it remove partially empty rows?
No, this tool specifically removes completely empty rows where all cells are blank. Rows with any data in at least one cell are preserved to prevent accidental data loss.
What file formats are supported?
The tool supports XLSX (Excel 2007+), legacy XLS format, and CSV files. Output is delivered in XLSX format by default for better compatibility and formatting preservation.
Can I undo changes after processing?
While the web version doesn't have an undo feature, your original file remains untouched. Always keep a backup copy before processing for safety.
Why use this instead of Excel filters?
