    Hi @Jefferson,

    Please check that you are using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard 32bit or 64bit.

    Excel is a 32bit application, you may search for SQL Server Import and Export Wizard 32bit and then have a try.

    If this do not work, try to install both 32bit and 64bit for Access database engine.

    Check it out here:
