Could reproduce the problem by opening more than 1 file in Excel which opens a new Excel window, the Add-In is present in only 1 of the Excel windows but not in all of them as in Excel 2007 and Excel 2010.

Fixed as of MySQL for Excel 1.1.2, and here's the changelog entry: In Microsoft Excel 2013, opening more than one file in Excel that opens a new Excel window, the MySQL for Excel plugin was present in only one of the Excel windows, and not in all of them as it is in Microsoft Excel 2007 / 2010. Thank you for the bug report.

And added another entry for: Behavior of the MySQL for Excel toggle button was changed. Instead of just showing or hiding the plugin, it now opens and closes it.

I am having the same problem on an HP laptop, but I am not having the problem on my PC. Both are running Windows 8.1 On the laptop, when I click on the MySQL for Excel button, it spins but never brings up the sidebar. Workbench works fine and makes a connection the database, which is on a third party machine. I cannot make a connection using the Excel connection menu; says rejected by server or server not exist.
