    Installing Power Query
    The Power Query add-on is installed by default in Excel 2016 and can be found in the Get & Transform section of the Data tab. However, for Excel 2010 and 2013, the add-on needs to be downloaded and installed. You can download the most recent version from the Microsoft site.

    I've received several comments on my blog that people dislike Excel 2007's Compatibility Checker, and would like to turn it off globally. While it's true that you can turn it off for each workbook, the main user interface seems devoid of a way to actually tell Excel that you never want to check your workbooks for compatibility when saving to 2003 or earlier versions. ...

    XLG Favourites
    This add-in was created to increase the functionality of Excel and address some shortcomings in the "Most Recently Used Files" listing. While we can increase the list to hold 9 items, I frequently use more than that many files during one of our month ends. It's also well known that long file names get abbreviated and difficult to read. This add-in addresses these issues, among other things. ...
