Excel Workbook not Opening

I have been trying to open my Excel workbook but I keep getting this error message: 

"Can't open your workbook

Power BI can't open your workbook. Try opening it in Excel Online, or try again later.

Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details..."
 
Can anyone help?
