I have had problems on Win 10 Pro installing this. It is listed in Apps in Settings but does not create a shortcut on Desktop nor in the Start menu. I have tried installing and uninstalling, rebooting a few times, all without success. I am perplexed, never having this difficulty before, and I ensured my Windows Installer service was running. Any suggestions?

Mug Wump, sorry, just got it, doh! The program creates ribbon icons in Word, Ppt, and Excel. All working now.

It's an add-in, so it doesn't launch as a stand-alone application. You just need to open PowerPoint or Excel

Thomas, thanks, I wasn't attentive to the distinction between add-in vs. stand-alone app. Best wishes.

Does this work for cloud based versions of Microsoft 365 or Google Docs/sheets?

It's very expansive, so it is the reason the number of users will be limited

After installation and entering activation code, the license is good til Jan. '23, which is not a year. Please advise.

Thanks for the offering.

Nice clean approach but only one year license, very over priced for adding so little value, large quantity of mundane content

Since it is a 1 year license, does it have to be canceled or will it time out automatically?

In all my years of using GAWOTD, Power-User Addin for Excel, Word, and PowerPoint looks to be the most useful utility I have ever added. The video on the home page (3-4 minutes) gives a great overview, and suggests many (many) commands, templates, useful actions that can be of benefit to a variety of users. Being retired, I have a more limited need for many of these features compared to my days in the work-a-day world. Nonetheless, I see several or more features that I can put to use right away, to good effect. I could go on, but you should get the drift. My key question, unanswered so far, is what the cost wouild be to "buy in" after the one year free license is up. I would appreciate hearing this answer.
Thanks, Ken

Ever since I installed I've had a white rectangle appear on my screen that I cannot get rid of.
Anyone else had the problem?

I use desktop WinWord 16.0 12527 22162 on Windows 7. I installed Power User and it asked for my e-mail address, NOT the key. In my e-mail was a message that Power User had been activated.
When I then opened Word and saw the initial blank document, Word abnormally terminated.
Tried it several times. Same result.
Uninstalled the Power User & now everything is restored & fine.

Looks like it has potential, but since this comes with only a 1-year license, I will not be trying it out. I only try out software that is truly free and not limited. With a 1-year license, this amounts to shareware.

Took a bit of digging to find:

Power-user is fully compatible with PowerPoint, Excel and Word, for any of the following Office versions:

Office 2007
Office 2010
Office 2013
Office 2016
Office 2019
Office 365

FWIW, we've seen several Office-related giveaways that usually are incompatible with Microsoft 365, so posting that info in the requirements would have been nice.

This program never appeared after installation on a windows 10 or windows 11 PC. What is wrong with this program that will NOT appear on the screen after it is installed ?

Reply | Comment by UnHappy – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+3)

It's an add-in, so it doesn't open on its own, you need to open Microsoft PowerPoint, or Excel, or Word

Reply | Comment by Thomas – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+2)

UnHappy, Because it installed as a plugin within the office suite. Open PowerPoint or Word and you'll see it.

Reply | Comment by Bernd – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+2)

Very rich in tools. It needs time to better evaluate this (these) tool(s). From what I tried, it is of high value.

Reply | Comment by Suh S. – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (-2)

this is an amazing software beyond description; for those who use power point and like to do presentations; what this does is amazing.

Reply | Comment by george ducas – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+1)

This installed okay and surprisingly works in Excel, which I've had trouble with for more than a decade (using Office 2010 edition) But nothing in Word.
As Word is my primary use of Office, I was looking forward to something maybe being useful. I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Nothing in Word.
Word - Add-ins claims program not loaded.
Is there some special trick to get this working in Word, or is that option not available in this version?
Thanks for any assistance..

Reply | Comment by S – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+5)

For Office 2010 there is an issue with Word, but you are not missing out much, there is almost no functionality for Word yet

Before I try this, I noticed that it is one year license, does that mean to install now they need my payment info, and what happens when that year comes up?

Reply | Comment by Scott Wise – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+3)

No payment info needed. After 1 year it will just deactivate unless you purchase

Reply | Comment by Thomas – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+1)

do I have to change the licence key to this new one and will that invalidate my office suite?
Also, as I use a standalone Microsoft Office 2021 (non-subscription) do I enter this new number as product key instead.

Reply | Comment by Guernsey – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (-5)

Hey, no there is no impact on your Office account. It's a separate software vendor, and the license keys are unrelated

Reply | Comment by Thomas – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+4)

Will not install on Windows 11 Pro - "Installed terminated prematurely" - even tried in admin mode.

Reply | Comment by Bernd – Last year – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+6)

Have to say, their Tech Support is top notch and responded very quickly to my issue. Wound up having to restart the WindowsInstaller service (strange....never had that issue before). Got it installed and it's up and running. Thanks again to Olivier from their Tech Support.
