Hello experts, My Insert tab view is missing Add-Ins Command group in excel.

Question

Hello experts,

My Insert tab view is missing Add-Ins Command group in excel. I am using Home and student 2021 office version.
I tried adding downloaded Ad-Ins in my custom command group under insert tab view but it's not showing the Add-ins to add.
The path followed is same i.e. File -> options -> Customize Ribbon.

Is there any way that I could add my downloaded Add-ins in this custom command group or get the missing Add-in Command group?

Hi Abhi_MSoffice,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I do understand and appreciate your posting. Please check if the add-ins were installed and check on the Excel Add-ins menu.

To check it. Please follow this steps:

1. Click the Windows Start menu > type RUN > Open the Run app > type on the dialog box "excel.exe /safe" > click Ok.
2. Once the Excel run on Safe mode which you will notice it since the ribbon bar background will be on white. Click File tab > Options > Click Add-ins > Click the dropdown menu and select Com Add-ins and then click GO > Mark as check the Add-ins you are trying to use and then click OK.
3. Close the Excel in Safe mode and reopen the Excel apps the normal way you open it and check if the Add-ins are now.
