ExcelAnalyzer helps Excel users build better, error-free spreadsheets. All our applications add an extra tab to the Excel ribbon, giving you formula auditing, dependency tracing, and reporting tools without leaving your workbook.
Before you start
- Excel version: Excel 2016 or later, including Microsoft 365
- Operating system: Windows 10 or later (32-bit and 64-bit)
- .NET Framework: version 4.8 or later — if it’s missing, the installer downloads and installs it automatically
- IT approval: it may be necessary to check with your IT department before installing third-party software
- Need help? Contact support@spreadsheetsoftware.com, use our contact form, or start a live chat
Step 1: Download the setup file
Save the “Setup_ExcelAnalyzer” file on your local drive/computer (for example on your C: or D drive)
Step 2: Close Microsoft Office
Close all open Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. This is especially important for the initial installation.
Step 3: Run the installer
Double-click Setup_ExcelAnalyzer.exe and follow the on-screen steps in the ExcelAnalyzer Setup Wizard.

Note: ExcelAnalyzer requires .NET Framework 4.8 or later. If it isn’t already installed, the setup automatically downloads and installs it for you.
Step 4: Accept the license agreement
Step 5: Launch Excel
Open Excel. On a new installation, the registration form will appear automatically. If you’re updating an existing installation, your current registration remains valid and no action is needed.
Step 6: Register your license
Choose one of three registration options:
- Register your license key (most common option) — check your inbox for an email from info@spreadsheetsoftware.com containing your license key (check your spam folder if it hasn’t arrived). Enter your email and paste the license key, then click Validate license.
- Register company license server — choose this option if your company runs an ExcelAnalyzer license server, or contact your IT team for guidance.
- Offline registration — choose this option if your computer doesn’t have access to our license server.
Make sure you’re connected to the internet before validating your license.
