I had a group of machines for a pilot project just stop launching Power View.

Very frustrating – and then my machine stopped working.

I finally tracked down the problem – and hopefully this helps others.

Using the Registry Editor – RegEdit – browse to

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\User Settings

You should see a registry key PowerViewExcelAddin

Delete the key.

Now open Excel – create a new blank workbook.

On the Insert tab you should see PowerView

Click on PowerView – Excel will say you need to enable Power View – click on Enable.

The Power View and all of the BI should work now.
