1. Make sure you are using a supported combination of MATLAB release and MS Office release, referring to the getting started section in the documentation:
docsearch('excel link getting started')
2. Follow the steps of installation instructions in the getting started section of the documentation.
3. Make sure you are using the right Addin file (according to your MS Office version).
4. Before you install the Addin make sure the security settings in Excel are not disabling Macros and Addins.
5. If MATLAB does not open immediately after installing the Addin, check if MATLAB is registered as an Automation Server. You can verify this by saving the the following VBS code:
Set MatlabObject = CreateObject("Matlab.Application")
MatlabObject.Visible = 1
MsgBox "Done"
to a .vbs script and run the script (double click). If MATLAB is registered as a COM Server a message box will pop up. Otherwise run the command 'regmatlabserver' in MATLAB, and install the Addin again.
6. If the installation still does not succeed, reset the Microsoft Office User Profile and try again.
