IBP Excel Add-In failed after previous APO DP Excel Add-In Installation

[dennis_eweler]

Hello everybody,

I have a problem with the IBP Add-In on my device. I installed the APO DP Add-In (similar to IBP Add-In, also based on EPM) a few weeks ago which worked fine. Because both plugins cannot be installed at the same time I deinstalled the APO DP Add-In and installed IBP Add-In. Now it is available in Excel, but nothing happens when I click on "Connect" (normale it should open the window where to define the connection).

Sadly the windows systemcecovery failes when I try to set the system back to the date of the APO Plug In Installation.

On other devices the IBP plugin works fine.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem ?

Best regards

Hello Dennis,

You can try by deleting the file Connections.XML.The system finding old connection from APO DP where as it doen't finds its corresponding Add-In and throws error.

Path : C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\EPMOfficeClient\

don't delete Connections.XML, just move it somewhere ele

when you re-install the DP-AdOn just put it back and you have all your connections recovered
