Hi

Welcome to uipath forum

There are two options to handle this

Either you can use WORKBOOK activities instead of excel so that we don’t need to rely on excel application so that it can run even without excel application

Or

Try with reinstalling office with trouble shoot steps

this attached document UiPath Excel Addin Installation Troubleshooting v4.docx (388.6 KB)

I have reinstalled office as well as reinstalled Uipath. Checked all excel add in options etc. It works in my other laptop but not in this…

Can you elaborate on workbook activities? U meanbi can skip using Excel Application Scope?

I am new to Uipath

I did, no use …still same error

Yes

In activity panel when you search as workbook you get the same set of activities as in excel package

When it’s used it doesn’t need excel application scope and can directly use workbook activities

Ok. I see it. I was trying to link a simple excel file and see the output by using ‘Excel Application Scope’ with ‘Read Range’. Now how do i this using Workbook?

Fine

Delete those two activities u have now

Then go for activity panel and search as WORKBOOK
Under that you can find READ RANGE activity

Double click that

Here you can mention the filepath
Cell range
Sheetname
And output variable name

  • same as excel package

The issue you were facing is something with the excel application level
Just on few patch updates that error might be rectified

And now it got resolved because we didn’t rely on excel application itself as we were using workbook
That is this activity can run even when excel is not installed
