+=== Excel Required Even if Already Installed ===
+If you get a message like the one below when attempting to launch an *SL Template (or its respective *.exe file): **Excel is required to run this application. Cannot continue** or **Excel was not found on its usual location**.
+By default, secure applications *SL Templates identify MS Excel through the Windows registry. To resolve this issue:
+\\
+) Open **RegEdit** and navigate to **HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\excel.exe**.
+Double-check that the path to the Excel's EXE file is accurate. If it is incorrect, either correct it manually; or
+) Repair your Office installation. For guidance on repairing an Office application, please refer to the following link: [[https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/repair-an-office-application-7821d4b6-7c1d-4205-aa0e-a6b40c5bb88b|Repair an Office Application]].

+This ensures that the path is accurately configured by the Office installer.
