Hello,

XLK extension is for Microsoft Excel backup and .SLK is Symbolic Link spreadsheet. .SLK extension is also named as SYLK and is used for exchanging data between applications, most for spreadsheet. And .XLK is for creating backup file when that option is set in the question for file. You can make Excel to create backup files always, just go in Menu tab, Save As->Tools->General Option and click on Always create backup.
