I have Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I installed Office 2013 Professional Plus 64 bit. I dont have any older versions of office. I downloaded and installed power query 64 bit. I start excel, click on power query tab and select any option, excel crashes and closes, every single time.
The event viewer says "Excel is running into problems with "microsoft power query for excel" add-in If it keeps happening disable this add in and check for updates.

Excruciatingly frustrating to have such an unintuitive message. What should I do to get power query working in excel 2013 and most importantly for excel to function ?
