    I have a plugin that allows me to upload a csv file which has worked fine in the past. I am now getting this message when I try to upload a file: [W007] Sample csv upload.csv: Found filename: Sample csv upload.csv, detected type: application/vnd.ms-excel. Sorry, the file must be of type “text/csv”
    My file is definitely a csv file, I have checked it in a text editor and the format is correct. This is happening on both my live site and on my test site on localhost so I don’t think it is a server issue. Is there a setting somewhere in wordpress that may have changed with an update?. The plugin author tells me that nothing has changed in the plugin which would cause this.

    The plugin I am using is Entrywizard for uploading of images for competition. I have discovered that this is a Windows 10 issue. Used my old laptop with XP and had no problems at all. I have recently upgraded to windows 10. Just not sure where to go from here.

    sounds like win110 might save teh file tye different – I’d contack the plugin developer and tell them this new info.

    I suppose it’s possible that OS and browser versions might screw with .csv mime types.

    Have you have a chance to try the upload with a browser other than Internet Explorer 11 or Edge?

    I’ve tried with Firefox, Chrome and Edge. All results are the same. Have contacted the plugin developer with the info. Hopefully she may have a solution.
