How to Add the Windows Calculator to the Quick Access Toolbar in
Microsoft Excel 2013

Do you use the Windows Calculator to perform quick calculations while building spreadsheets in Excel? You can save time by adding
the Calculator to the Quick Access Toolbar in Excel so you don’t have to leave the program to access the Calculator.
To do this, click the down arrow on the right side of the Quick Access Toolbar and select More Commands from the drop-down
menu.

On the Quick Access Toolbar screen on the Excel Options dialog box, select Commands Not in the Ribbon from the Choose
commands from drop-down list.

How to Add the Windows Calculator to the Quick Access Toolbar in Microsoft Excel 2013

You’ll see a Calculator icon on the Quick Access Toolbar. When you move your mouse over the icon, a hint displays saying
“Custom.” Despite the label, when you click the icon, the Windows Calculator opens.

The same procedure works for adding the Windows Calculator to Excel 2010, as well.
