    Hi,

     

    To add to what was said by ApplePen :

    -- TestComplete and Excel driver bitness must match. Bitness of Excel application is irrelevant and its presence is not required;

    -- TestComplete installation installs both x32 and x64 flavors of TestComplete during install - TC x32 is installed into <TestComplete>\Bin folder while TC x64 is installed into <TestComplete>\x64\Bin one. So you can use the flavor that best fits the needs of your project without the necessity to reinstall something.
