How do I manually install a missing Command Expert Excel add-on?

The Command Expert Excel Add-on requires a supported version of Excel (2007/2010/2013) and some underlying components. To manually install the Add-on use the following procedure:

1)  Check to see if there is an entry for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime in Windows Programs and Features (Add/Remove Programs on Windows XP). If missing, download and install it from the following link:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43664

 

2) As an administrator, manually install the Excel add-on by navigating to

(x64) - C:\Program Files (x86)\Keysight\Command Expert\

OR

(x86) - C:\Program Files\Keysight\Command Expert\  

and then right click on Keysight.CommandExpert.Addons.Excel.vsto and select open.  The add-on will now appear for the Excel user that installed the add-on. 

 

If you receive the following message from the vsto installer:

Unable to install this application because an application with the same identity is already installed. To install this application, either modify the manifest version for this application or uninstall the preexisting application

Navigate and delete the application manifest files from the following location:

Windows 7: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\LocalSettings\Apps\2.0\
 
Repeat step two to rerun the Excel add-on installer.
