- Download the update for MyToolBelt and extract the ZIP file.
- In Excel, open File > Options > Add-ins. Select the installed MyToolBelt entry and note its location.
- Beside Manage, select Excel Add-ins and click Go. Clear the MyToolBelt checkbox and click OK, then close all Excel windows.
- Right-click the new
MyToolBelt.xlamfile and choose Properties. If Unblock is shown, select it and click Apply. - Copy the new file into the installation folder you noted, replacing the old add-in file.
- Reopen Excel and return to Excel Add-ins. Select MyToolBelt again. If it is not listed, click Browse and select the updated file.
- Check that the MyToolBelt ribbon tab appears, then review your settings and try a small example.
Older releases may use a versioned filename such as My_Tool_Belt_v1.2.xlam. Uncheck the old entry before loading MyToolBelt.xlam so two versions are not active together.
If the buttons do not respond after updating, follow the installation guide to check that the new file is unblocked and loaded.
