Hello,

We're having an issue with one client's computer where the XLL addin is not showing in Excel. The COM addin shows and loads fine but none of our custom functions (XLL) will appear. We've reviewed all the different suggestions on this site and nothing seems to do the trick. It's not showing in the Excel -> Options -> Addins screen at all (normal spot or disabled)

They are running Excel 2016 MSO (16.0.9029.2106) 32 bit - Home and Business 2016.
Version 1802 (Build 9029.2167 Microsoft Store)

Hi Andrei,

I tested this on my clients computer and the XLL addin still isn't showing up. I don't have a copy of this Microsoft Store version of Excel to test on myself.

Mark,

What Excel build number are you using?

Please check if your XLL is mentioned in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\Options. The valuse name is "OPEN" or "OPEN{an integer}"; the value's value is "/R {path to adxloader[64].{addin name}.dll}" e.g.

/R "C:\Users\andrej\AppData\Local\Default Company\MyAddin54\adxloader.MyAddin54.dll"

If yes, Excel doesn't read it for some reason. If no, this is an issue in Add-in Express.

They are running Excel 2016 MSO (16.0.9029.2523) 32 bit - Home and Business 2016.
Version 1802 (Build 9029.2253 Microsoft Store)

The key is there and the path is correct.

Well, you may register the add-in (a correct loader file) right in Excel: see the Excel add-ins dialog. This workaround requires that you delete the add-in from the dialog before you uninstall the add-in.
