Does think-cell work with Microsoft Office preview versions?
If this article was displayed automatically after you launched PowerPoint or Excel, your Microsoft Office is most likely a preview version, i.e., not a version that was officially released by Microsoft.
Office preview versions often contain significant bugs and Microsoft makes large changes between previews and official releases. Therefore, think-cell cannot generally support Office previews. Ensure that you have at least Microsoft's original RTM ("release to manufacturing") release of your Office version. We also recommend that the service packs are installed. The RTM versions were:
- Office 2010: 14.0.4763.1000
- Office 2013: 15.0.4420.1017
- Office 2016 (MSI): 16.0.4266.1003
