Power BI Publisher for Excel add-in not loading

Hi,

 

I downloaded the preview of the add-in: Power BI Publisher for Excel. The product installs correctly but it does not load in Excel even after a reboot. Selecting the add-in in the COM-addin list does not work either.

 

In about, my version of Excel is 2016 MSO (16.0.6701.1005) 64-bit.  (I downloaded the 64 bit add-in).

 

Thanks,

Charle

Go to the developer ribbon, open Com Add-ins, select the Power BI, add-in, click ok and reopen Excel.  This worked for me when I was having your problem.

 

Good luck!

Hi,

 

I'm facing the same problem, in some computers it is working properly, in others not, any feedback from the geek of the community??

 

Thaks dudes

Turns out (for me) I had Excel 2013 and 2016 installed on the same machine and it didn't like that - I uninstalled 2013, repaired 2016, and everything worked great.

I can't figure this out. It used to work fine and I was trying to demo it for a client this week and the add-in tab was gone - I couldn't activate it. 😞
