Can you please include a screenshot of the Excel Advanced>>Open, and your parameters? Something like this:

I have configured it to run to one of my network shares as shown in the screenshot but am unable to duplicate the behavior you're seeing. Also, can you please let us know what version of the product you're using, and whether on-prem or Cloud?
