We installed an add-in while logged on as Administrator. There are multiple
profiles (users) on this computer and when a user logged in and opened Excel,
the add-in was not there.

Is there a way to have the add-in apply to all profiles?

Excel is on the local C drive, as well as the add-in.

Thank you!

Hi MB,

While logged in as the user who needs access to the newly installed Add-In,
you should be able to activate the add-in by choosing Add-Ins from the Tools
Menu. After you click on it you should get a list of available add-ins,
check off the Add-In you need then click OK. You should then be able to use
this Add-In for the current user

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick reply, Matt. Yes, this works for the current user, but
is there a way that the Add-in will work for all users for that computer.
We're having to activate the add-in for each individual user. Since the
add-in is stored on the local drive, can't it be activated for all users?

Thanks again, Matt.

MB,

I do no think there is an option in Excel to activate the add-in for an
entire machine. All settings in Excel are usually user specific and do not
carry over from one user to another. Sorry.
