Send to Excel with plugin not working

m_woolf — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

We are moving to Windows 10 and our company policy will be that no user will have admin rights to their computers.

Wehn we do Send to Excel with the QVPlugin, Excel opens with no data and this event error is created:

The machine-default permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID

{C2F03A33-21F5-47FA-B4BB-156362A2F239}

and APPID

{316CDED5-E4AE-4B15-9113-7055D84DCC97}

to the user AMU\XXXXXXX SID (S-1-5-21-4127812034-820336945-2256232113-810692) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

We have tested with an admin account and there is no error.

Does the plugin require admin access to the computer? Is there a fix (other that using Export or Copy to clipboard).

Do you have to use the IE Plug in?

We just switched to Windows 10 and have no admin rights and have no issue with Ajax.

I am testing with the plugin now and it's working just fine for me so it is not per say because you are not an admin.

Hello m w,

I have a macro to export the object to excel file. If you want to specify the object ID from front-end you can use variable in the Object-ID. Try this.

Sub ExportToExcel

DIM ExcelApplication, ExcelWorkbook

SET ExcelApplication = CREATEOBJECT("Excel.Application")

SET ExcelWorkbook = ExcelApplication.Workbooks.Add

ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH142").CopyTableToClipBoard TRUE // Specify the object ID to export to excel.

ExcelWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Paste

ExcelWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Rows("1:100000").RowHeight = 15

ExcelWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Columns("A:ZZ").AutoFit

ExcelApplication.DisplayAlerts = FALSE

ExcelWorkbook.SaveAs "D:\Development\Test.xlsx" , 51 //Specify the Path to save the excel file

ExcelApplication.Quit

MsgBox " Excel file saved in Default path !! "

End Sub

Daniel,

Yes, AJAX works fine. Many of our applications require the plugin, so we are looking for a fix.

Rajender,

Thanks for your reply.

We have more than 120 apps and we would have to have a different macro for each chart in the app.

We need a fix for the Send to Excel feature, not a workaround.

If we check this error-message in google:

https://www.google.de/search?q=do+not+grant+Local+Activation+permission+for+the+COM+Server+application‌

we will see that's not an uncommon error and that the reason are missing rights either caused through the probably adjusted policies for Windows 10 or through any conflicts by the installation. The suggested solutions seems to be all to adjust it within the registry.

I think that the restrictions for the users are too strict and that something essential to call excel as tool is blocked.

Thanks Marcus,

We will present this to our tech team for testing.

If all works out, I will mark this response as correct.

After adding our Accesspoint URL to Trusted Sites, all problems with the plugin were resolved.
