office 2013 and powerpivot

[jackmccarthy]

I have been working on the trail version of excel 2013 64 bit with power pivot installed, but when my trail period ended a few days ago I purchased the paid version from the Microsoft store. After uninstalling the trail version I installed the paid version. when I opened excel there was no tab for power pivot and no add in under the option tab. Can anyone tell me what version of office comes standard with power pivot (student, professional) / and if I need to downloaded it, like we had to do in excel 10 and if so where to find it? The Microsoft store is no help at all the people I talk with sound like they don't even know what power pivot is ?? lol

Unfortunately, Powerpivot only comes available with the Excel 2013 Professional Plus version which you can get from Volume Licensing or Office365. Not from retailers

Powerpivot didn't come in Excel 2013

I have been working the last 90 days in depth on workbooks in 13. Any ideas what I can do now? Is all that work basically lost?

well, there's no way of getting those workbooks back to Excel 2010 so, unfortunately, my best recommendation would be to get an Office365 subscription
