Remove the CORS headers and make responseType an option, not a header:

getSalesARExcel(attach: string): Observable<any>{
    const obj={
        "AttachmentId":attach
    }
    return this.http.post(url, obj ,{
        headers: new HttpHeaders({
            'Content-Type': 'application/json',
            "Authorization":'Bearer ' + localStorage.getItem('token'),
            ̶'̶A̶c̶c̶e̶s̶s̶-̶C̶o̶n̶t̶r̶o̶l̶-̶A̶l̶l̶o̶w̶-̶O̶r̶i̶g̶i̶n̶'̶:̶'̶*̶'̶,̶
            ̶'̶A̶c̶c̶e̶s̶s̶-̶C̶o̶n̶t̶r̶o̶l̶-̶A̶l̶l̶o̶w̶-̶H̶e̶a̶d̶e̶r̶s̶'̶:̶'̶O̶r̶i̶g̶i̶n̶,̶ ̶M̶e̶t̶h̶o̶d̶s̶,̶ ̶C̶o̶n̶t̶e̶n̶t̶-̶T̶y̶p̶e̶'̶,̶
            ̶'̶r̶e̶s̶p̶o̶n̶s̶e̶T̶y̶p̶e̶'̶:̶ ̶'̶R̶e̶s̶p̶o̶n̶s̶e̶C̶o̶n̶t̶e̶n̶t̶T̶y̶p̶e̶.̶B̶l̶o̶b̶'̶
        }),
        'responseType': 'blob'
    })
}

CORS headers are response headers, not request headers.

The responseType is an XHR option, not a header.
