Cannot run the macro 'SOLVER.XLAM!GetSolverLabel'.
I've recently encountered a similar issue with Solver. Uninstalling and installing office 365 did not work. The issue I think was caused by 32bit vs 64bit incompatibility yet when I checked office, windows, and my laptop they were all 64bit. Then once, when I was uninstalling MS office I noticed that there was another office app that came with my laptop called "WPS Office" which is freeware shipped with Asus. Since I was not using it, I decided to uninstall it. And voila that made solver work again.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! it was indeed that bulls**t WPS Office, wasted 3+ hours of my life on this issue
- Thank you so much, best solution
- uninstalling WPS Office did solve the SOLVER problem. 64bit of Office version is not the problem.

THank you so muchDavidDodd888
- Hi,
I own an Asus laptop and have been trying to use solver but I'm getting the error Cannot run the macro 'SOLVER.XLAM!MainEx' and Cannot run the macro 'SOLVER.XLAM!GetSolverLabel'. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling office 2016 and then even installed 2019 but the same error occurs. Also i don't have WPS office on my laptop. Please help as I need to work with the solver on an immediate basis.
Any help from anyone would be highly appreciated.Try installing the 32bit version of Office365. The issue seems to be related to the Solver32.DLL I just encountered the same problem and installing the 32bit version resolved it
This error "Cannot run the macro 'SOLVER.XLAM!GetGroupLapel'. The macro may not be available in this workbook or all macros may be disabled." was a nightmare!
Thank you so much DavidDodd888 You a life-saver. I uninstall the WPS Office that came with my Asus laptop and the solver has been working amazingly.
- I've wasted a day trying to re-find this fix. It was so simple (uninstall WPS Office) that I didn't write it down 2 years ago when I first resolved it. Then after a recent Windows 10 update that corrupted my Laptop's audio, mic and camera and needed a system reset and windows re-installation as well as reinstalling and re-configuring so many other tools I use (wasting another day+ thanks to Microsoft), I got stuck again. I originally thought it was caused by my SIPMath excel add-in, but eventually realized it was all add-ins. WPS Office should come with an option and a warning, "Do not install if you plan on using Excel!"
- You my friend have saved my life! Thank you for this!
DavidDodd888thank you so much your the best!
