+## Description
+A simple Python script that converts Microsoft Excel '.xls' file to '.xlsx' file.
+
+## Languages or Frameworks Used
+This script requires [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/) and [pywin32](https://pypi.org/project/pywin32/).
+
+## How to run
+
+1. Ensure you have [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/) installed on your system.
+2. Navigate to this project directory or where `xls_to_xlsx.py` is saved.
+3. To install the required dependencies, open a terminal and run:
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+4. Make sure you close all running Microsoft Excel applications before executing the script.
+5. To run the script, open a terminal and run the following command:
+
+```bash
+python xls_to_xlsx.py
+```
+
+6. Follow the prompts to input the file path.
+7. The output file is then saved in the same directory as the input file.
+8. Input either 'y' to delete the old '.xls' file or 'n' to keep it instead.
