3) After checking required Add-ins, in my case I have selected PowerPivot and Power View; you will be able to get PowerPivot Tab in Ribbonimage

 

Few things to keep in mind before enabling Add-In

You will need...

  • .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
  • 64 BIT – this will enable PowerPivot to load extremely large data and take leverage of available memory on your box
  • Silverlight 5 for Power View
