Hello,
I am a Microsoft 365 personal subscriber and I am experiencing an issue when trying to install the "Claude by Anthropic for Excel" add-in from the official Office Store.
When I attempt to install it, I receive the following error:
"You don't have permission to use this add-in. Contact your system administrator to request access."
I have already checked the following:
- Trust Center settings in Excel: all add-in options are enabled and nothing is blocked
- My Microsoft account privacy settings: Claude does not appear under "App access" in my account
- I tried installing from Insert → Get Add-ins directly in Excel, and I receive "Error loading add-ins – One or more add-ins failed to load"
This is a personal Microsoft 365 account, not a business or organization account, so there is no system administrator to contact.
Could you please help me enable third-party add-in access for my account?
Thank you very much for your help.

I found a work around by using a different account, but still using the origina;l subscription.
It looks like it's a Microsoft problem. I hope it will be solved soon!

Willian Brunno Azevedo 0 Puntos de reputación2026-06-01T01:41:50.2766667+00:00 Same problem here. I've noticed that using Claude's Add-in for Excel Online works fine, but with the native app, this problem persists. Hope Microsoft fixes it soon.

Enrique Calderón 5 Puntos de reputación2026-05-30T16:04:37.16+00:00 Hi Ruud, I have exactly the same problem. Could you please explain the workaround you found? What do you mean by 'using a different account but still using the original subscription'? Thank you! mean while, waiting the mocrosoft`s solution...

2026-05-30T16:13:19.58+00:00 Just use a different Microsoft account (maybe you need to create one), Then logout in Excel from the orignal account and logn to the other one. It seems to still remember the original account that has the subscription.
Not very elegant, but an acceptable work around.
BTW, the problem is really Microsoft accout related, as I experienced the same problem on a different PC (under the same account).
Let's hope things will be sorted quickly.

SD - IA 181.1K Puntos de reputación Asesor independiente2026-05-29T09:18:35.3033333+00:00 Hi,
This is super strange, although MS office is your Personal subscription but may I know if a Work or school account is added in Settings > Accounts > Access Work or school?Additionally, Please open Credential Manager > Windows /Web credentials, do you see any Work account credential listed?
I’m eager to hear back and work together to find a solution.

AtoZ-PabloHernandez - Business Efficiency 0 Puntos de reputación2026-06-02T10:17:39.41+00:00 Don't think it is subscription related I have exactly the same issue on a Office 2021 Pro Plus V2605 Build 20026.20112 licensed installation. However my PC at the same office using the same version is running the add-in with absolutely no issues. So is not even a generalised issue, seems to be a random blockage on some accounts.
