Before starting

To make sure your system meets all the requirements XLSTAT needs to work properly, please follow this quick guide here.

Step 1: Finding out your version of Excel

Because XLSTAT has to work along with Excel, you have to find out what is the version of Excel that you have (32-bit or 64-bit) before being able to install our software.

Here is how to do so: open Excel then follow the steps described by the picture of the software that looks like your version. The detail to be retrieved is the one framed in red:

Version of Excel	Procedure
Excel 2013 to Excel 2019
Excel 2007 to Excel 2010

Knowing this 32-bit or 64-bit detail is required for the steps below.

Step 2: Installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable

The Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable must also be installed on the computer XLSTAT is deployed on. The required version would be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the version of XLSTAT that is used. Install the one that match the version of Excel that you found out in step 1:

• For Excel 32-bit: www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5582

• For Excel 64-bit: www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=2092

Install the file that was downloaded by double clicking on it.

Step 3: Installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable

The Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable must also be installed on the computer XLSTAT is deployed on. The required version would be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the version of XLSTAT that is used. Install the one that match the version of Excel that you found out in step 1:

• For Excel 64-bit: https://aka.ms/vs/15/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

Install the file that was downloaded by double clicking on it.

Step 5: Installing XLSTAT

You can now install XLSTAT. For this, please download the file that corresponds to the version of Excel retrieved on the step 1:

• For Excel 32-bit: https://files.xlstat.com/releases/xlstat_x86.msi
