The installer does not run properly.
Assuming that your computer meets the system requirements for the ExcelAnalyzer add-in, this is often a result of:
- Incomplete installer download: The installation setup file must be completely downloaded to your local hard drive before running the installer. When downloaded, the local installation setup file will be around 14Mb.
- Invalid installer location: The installation setup file should be run from the hard drive of the computer into which the software will be installed. Avoid running the installer from a network drive or temporary internet files directory and never run the installer directly from its download location.
- Always unzip the zipfile first before running the set file to a local drive.
