Microsoft Intereop Excel addin missing

Hi,
I have one network user who can't export from NAV to Excel - a message displays "Cannot load an instance of the following .NET Framework object: assembly Microsoft.office.Interob.Excel, Version=15.0.0.0. Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c.
We're on NAV 2016 CU32 with Office 365.
I've run the setup.exe from the DVD - verified that the Office addin was installed, and also did a "Repair". I did not have the user reboot the workstation (yet).
Also, in my local NAV installation, if I look in Excel File/Options/Add-ins, I see an entry for "Microsoft Dynamics NAV Add-in", with the location of:
file///C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\90\RoleTailored Client\Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.ExcelAddin.vsto|vstolocal
On the user's workstation, that line in her "addins" page does not display. I tried to add the addin (it's not displayed when you click "Manage", "Excel Addins" or "manage","COM Addins", and if I click "Add" on the next page and navigate to that file (Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.ExcelAddin.vsto), I get an error message
"Microsoft.Office.Nav.ExcelAddin.vsto" is not a valid Office Add-In". I also tried to add "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll" with the same result.
I don't know much about .vsto files and how they are "installed", nor do I know that this is the cause of my error.
Has anyone run into this issue, and have a solution short of uninstalling the client and reinstalling?
Thanks
Ron

I suggest to google a bit, this is tricky:

Try updating .net framework etc.0 -
Thanks for the suggestion. I did first google this problem, and went through the various suggestions, e.g. making sure the library dll was there, checking registry entries, etc. My next attempt will be just to uninstall the client and reinstall.Ron0
