Hi,

Microsoft SQL Server 2012 has encountered a problem with the PowerPivot for Excel setup.

Have a look at the error message below. It is claiming about the missing of some prerequisites.

Hello Hall,

In order to fix that issue, you will need to reinstall the Visual Studio 2012 tools. Another workaround will be to download the Orca MSI Editor and after that run a full validation. You will need to get rid of the CustomAction and after that  you can go ahead and install PowerPivot.

Regards,

Nicke
