Hi @Rafiuddin_333 

Unfortunately Alteryx does not support well xls format. The easiest way to handle it is to save the file to xlsx format. Nevertheless if you are trying to input only 1 single file it should work. You normally getting this error when you are trying to input multiple xls files.

this Could be the Microsoft access drivers. Theres some resource in here:
Troubleshooting Microsoft Access read/write issues (alteryx.com)
Let me know if this helps!
