Comments on: PowerPivot for Excel add-in is not coming up in Excel http://powerpivotgeek.com/2010/05/12/powerpivot-for-excel-add-in-is-not-coming-up-in-excel/ An adventure in managed self-service computing Mon, 16 Apr 2012 21:38:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Ed http://powerpivotgeek.com/2010/05/12/powerpivot-for-excel-add-in-is-not-coming-up-in-excel/comment-page-1/#comment-10835 Ed Sun, 04 Mar 2012 17:20:47 +0000 http://powerpivotgeek.com/2010/05/12/powerpivot-for-excel-add-in-is-not-coming-up-in-excel/#comment-10835 After 8 hours of trying numerous fixes, uninstalls, installs, repairs, .net 3.5 vs 4.0, visual studio 2010, etc, I still could not get my PowerPivot ribbon to show up in Excel 2010 (windows 7 32 bit). Oh, also, like many I could see the PowerPivot .Com add-in but when I checked it, clicked Ok, it still didn't show up and going back to the Add-in options it would be unchecked. Here is the work around I found. In Excel, go to File, Options, Add-Ins, select Excel Add-Ins in lower left and hit go. Uncheck Solver and hit Ok (if already unchecked, hit Ok). Now repeat File, Options, Add-Ins, Excel Add-Ins, Go and Check Solver and hit OK. Now immediately do File, Options, Add-Ins, Com Add-ins, Go, check PowerPivot for Excel and hit OK. Powerpivot now shows up in the Ribbon. There must be a connection or conflict between Solver and PowerPivot. Next I am going to try and find the order the two are loaded when just opening Excel 2010, but I don't know where to go to find that. I hope this helps others from spending 8 hours and then stubbling across a strange fix.

But I was not able to activate the plugin in excel. What helped was to install the exact version of .NET 4 mentioned as requirement for powerpivot on the powerpivot website.

This was on a machine which I had just done a clean install of everything. The RTM powerpivot would install and run with no problem; Powerpivot CTP3 would install, just not start. I tried reinstalling and repairing everything, Powerpivot, VSTO, and the dot Net clinet profile... .many times, with reboots... and it still would not start. After two days of pulling up my hair, I finally found a solution: it had to do with dot Net 4, not VSTO as most people point to as being the problem for this error message. I installed the full version of dot Net 4, instead of just the client profile (which is what is indicated as being the requirement)and then Powerpivot started up no problem.

I installed .net framework 4.0 and after that, PowerPivot addon didn't work anymore. I tried to remove .net 4.0, reinstalled Excel 2010, powerpivot ,etc. I see the addon in the addon list but cannot select it. I also added the user environment variable to see the error message. I see this error: "The add-in could not be found or could not be loaded" Can't move focus to the control because it is invisible, not enabled, or of a type that does not accept the focus. I can't find any solution for this problem. I am having the same problem. I installed .net framework 4.0 and after that, PowerPivot addon didn’t work anymore.

Yesterday updated to version .2500 Today, Excel crashed after changing PowerPivot data. The add-in was gone. So I went to the com-add-in window in Excel. The Powerpivot for excel is unchecked. I can re-check it, but in the text line underneath is says 'removed' See screenshot. Re-checking the checkmark doesn't give me PowerPivot back... https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=6dcd492ec389dd92&page=play&resid=6DCD492EC389DD92!850 I have been using PowerPivot for months.
