Try

Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar

1) Start-Run- excel.exe /unregserver -OK.
2) Start-Run- excel.exe /regserver -OK.

Note the space between exe and /regserver

You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe (most likely
C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\Office11) if you have Excel 2003 (ver 11)

In that case Start-Run- "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office11\excel.exe" /regserver - OK

Note that quotes are required because of spaces in the path
