***Solution*** Issues with detong.kteloader add-in

I have been fighting this detong.kteloader problem for months, trying every so often to see if the problem is resolved w/a fresh install, with no luck. Excel simply will not open with Kutools enabled, at all.

I have noticed that in my Excel Add-ins, the Kutools Utilities is listed in the "inactive applications" section & has a location in the program files Kutools for Excel folder for the "Loading" file. I had previously noticed that that particular file in my program folder has no file extension. The last modified date is always listed as 12/29/2021, but after fresh installs of Kutools, the created date is the date of the install. I have tried guessing what the file extension should be based on other files in the folder & tried .dll, .exe, .exe.manifest, none of which work.

Do you know what the file extension for the Loading file should be? Do you think giving this file an extension would allow the add-in to function properly? I am running Office 365 on Windows 11.

The other kutools add-ins are: Enabled - Kutools for Excel Helper and disabled - kutools for Excel 26.00. I tried all of the other potential fixes listed on the forum, with the exception of rolling back to a previous version. I installed the debug files P & A, noticed that I was in version 27.00, but I still had the loading file w/o and extension and the detong.kteloader error. 

Thank you in advance.
 

Hi banumurti.danardono,

In your Excel, under Kutools tab, please find Help > Setting Center. In the pop-up dialog, please check Enable compatible mode, or Disable Navigation Pane on Startup to test if Kutools is working properly.


However, if you do not see the Disable Navigation Pane on Startup option, please reinstall the files again:
KutoolsforExcelSetup.Debug.A
KutoolsforExcelSetup.Debug.p

Thanks in advance.

Hi Amanda, 

I am experience the same issue, and I tried to setup using both installer file as you mention, but all are not working. Any suggestion ? 

Hi Raúl Flores,

We have configured two versions for those users who has the Detong.Kteloader Add-In problem. Please download the two versions as listed below. 
KutoolsforExcelSetup.Debug.A

Then please install and use them one by one. After that, please tell us if either one works for you.

Thanks in advance.

Workaround for Windows 11 plus Office 365 crashes with v26. (Registered user)
Error related to the detong.kteloader add-in that prevents Excel from starting. I tried several workarounds described in the forums without success.
What worked for me was Uninstalling v26, cleaning the registry, and then installing my old v23 (I tried v26, v25, v24 and same failing results). The old version works for me in Windows 11 and MS Office 365. I will not enjoy the apparent improvements on v26, but at least I have something up and running.

I hope the ExtendOffice team can test Windows 11 Enterprise 64 Bits, Version 21H2.
v23 works for me.

Hi All,

When you encounter a problem with Kutools for Excel, please, send us the information about your operating system ( Which version of Windows operating system am I running? ), Excel version and the language you are using on your computer. Also, please send us how did the add-in go wrong in detail, a picture or file attachmemt would be even better. Is it because of a feature you were using, or a specific file you were opening? Or it just happens after you open an excel file? ...  And how does it look when the add-in went wrong?

We will definitly try our best to fix the bugs. However, since the problems can vary widely, especially on so much different computer environment, it will take us a lot of time. So, please update to our latest version, or ask us to send you the version that works on your computer for your current use.

So sorry for the trouble.

Yours,
Amanda

Following up on this topic.  I am experiencing the same issue and have tried all of the steps below with no success.  I am running Windows 11 and Office 365.

Is there another solution to this issue? I tried all the steps and still can't get Kutools to install correctly. 

     Hello,

     Thanks for the solution; does this fix also work for windows 8?

     Thanks
