Hi.
In the process of installing Power Query in Excel 2013, the following error occurred.

What version of Internet Explorer do you have installed?
I'm using IE 11.
Ver. 1809(OS build 17763.1879)
I'm also using Edge, too.
The installer determines the version of IE by looking in the registry. If you're comfortable using regedit, can you check the value of Version under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer?
Sure.
My IE Version is 8.0.6001.18702.
Well, that explains the error. According to that registry entry, you have IE 8.
Is there a Version under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432\Microsoft\Internet Explorer?
It is not the same path, but there is a similar registry key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
Again, the version is 8.0.6001.18702.
What should I do? do i need to install something?
Edit registry key?
Ok, thanks. PQ can't be installed because the registry thinks you have IE8, not IE11. Perhaps you could try to repair or reinstall IE.
Based on the registry information you shared in the comments, it looks like PQ can't be installed because the registry claims you have IE8, not IE11. Please try repairing or reinstalling IE.
