Excel add-in locations

Question

Hello all, 
 I often come to instruments that are set-up by the service engineers just before I get to them. In order for our reporting methods to work we need to know the location of the Excel Add-ins. In previous versions of MassHunter we were able to find them in a regular place. They would all be in the location given below: 
 
 but in MH12 the Quant files seem to be in a different location. 
 This is what we have found: 
 
 This is what we are looking for:

Is anyone aware of where we can find this? 
 
 Thank you for any help you can provide us!

Hello DClairII , 
 Both 12.0 and 12.1 use the same addins in the same location. 
 The screenshot above shows a 12.0 system. The installed version for 12.1 would be 12.1.938.3. If you want to verify that the addins were originally loaded you need to choose Change on the first maintenance screen. 
 
 If this and/or the repair utility does not allow for Excel reporting then you can manually load the addins from your working system using the instructions in the previous linked post.

Hello DClairII , 
 Quant 12.x still puts the Excel addins in the same location, though I do not believe they are enabled by default during installation. The first thing to do would be to go into Windows Apps settings, choose Quant, and then select to Modify/Change the installation. You will then be presented with the option to load the templates and addins. If these were already selected, you can try to run the Repair Quantitative Analysis Reporting tool found in the Windows Start menu under Agilent MassHunter Quantitative->Quantitative Analysis Tools. 
 If that doesn't work then you may need to try manually loading them. Further instructions, screenshots, and a link for the addins can be found in this discussion.
