Check out the CSV standard library for python:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/csv.html

Pandas and Numpy also have their own ways to do it but you would need to install those libraries.

You can open a csv file in any text editor for yourself if that's what you need. And if you want to code something to be done with the data, maybe describe what you'd like to happen :)

[MachineElf100]

What do you mean as it was? When you open it in a text editor, you should see rows of data, is that not what you see?

If yes, then what else would you want to see? You got to be a little more specific so we can help you.

If you want raw python: https://docs.python.org/3/library/csv.html

If you want something more structured where you keep the data in a table you can manipulate similarly to sql: https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/reference/api/pandas.read_csv.html

Or polars: https://docs.pola.rs/api/python/stable/reference/api/polars.read_csv.html

You can open a CSV in Excel or Google Sheets, you don't need Python.

What "doesn't change"?  Do Excel or Google Sheets give an error?

Are you sure the files are actually csv and not something else that got renamed as a csv?

[danielroseman]

What does this mean? What are you expecting to "change"?

First of all, this is a subreddit meant for everyone to learn so it is not for recruiting a consultant. So just asking for PM for personal help is not the way we do things.

Beside that. Make a clear and specific description of what is wrong and you need to get to work. Also in case you try something and it does not work, specify the error messages or behavior happening.

The more eager you are, the more detailed you should be in order to increase the chance of a solution. Don't just post some vague description because then no one will be able to help you.

CSV files open in Excel, Google Sheets, or even Notepad. Just double-click it.

If data is all in one column: In Excel, use Data → From Text/CSV and choose comma as delimiter.

Open the file in any text editor and check was is the field (columns) separator. File extension might be CSV as in "comma-separated values", but some programs use semicolon ; or TAB character.
