How to connect Excel to Oracle with PowerQuery

I am trying to connect Excel to my company's Oracle Database. According to the following instructions it should be fairly easy: https://www.wikihow.com/Connect-Excel-to-an-Oracle-Database.
However it has been impossible and quite frustrating so far.
I have followed two different approaches that I've found online.
FIRST APPROACH: installed ODAC from Oracle's Universal Installer
I went to this site https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/dotnet-odacdev-downloads.html and downloaded the ODAC 12.2.0.1.1 file.
Then, I went through the installation process basically just clicking 'next' on every step.
Note 1: (I don't know if this might be important), in the Database Connection configuration tab I did not fill in any of the information (simply because I didn't know what to put there). It said that if information wasn't filled in, it would not create the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
Note 2: After finishing the installation it says 'run the SQL scripts located in the ... directory after the install'. Which I didn't do, again, because I didn't know how.
After the installation finished a directory was created in the following location: C:\app\client\myUserName\.
The directory goes all the way down to C:\app\client\myUserName\product\12.2.0\client_1, and it contains a bunch of files and folders.
I noticed that no environmental variable was created.
SECOND APPROACH: installed ODBC instant client
I went to this site https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html and downloaded both instantclient-basic-windows.x64-19.6.0.0.0dbru.zip and instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-19.6.0.0.0dbru.zip.
Then I created the directory C:\Oracle\instantclient_19_6 and unziped both folders contents into it.
Finally, I ran odbc_install from the command_line, as an administrator, but got Oracle ODBC Driver with same name already exists.
Note: in this case I also noticed that no environmental variable was created.
RESULTS:
When I go to Excel and click on Data\From Database\From Oracle Database I keep getting the same error as before: The recommended provider ('Oracle.DataAccess.Client') is not installed. You can continue with your current provider, however it has been deprecated and may not work properly.".
I was able to solve it by installing the 64 bits version of Oracle's client. Its located at https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/112010-win64soft.html, file win64_11gR2_client.zip.
Although the message "The recommended provider ('Oracle.DataAccess.Client') is not installed. You can continue with your current provider, however it has been deprecated and may not work properly." remained, I was able to connect after ignoring it.
I have also tried a bunch of approaches and finally got rid of the 'Oracle.DataAccess.Client is not installed' error.
Install Oracle Client for Microsoft Tools:
ODP.NET, Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio (Code), and ODAC
https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/net-downloads.html
Oracle Client for Microsoft Tools installs and configures ODP.NET to support 64-bit Microsoft tool connections with Oracle database. It supports connecting with Power BI Desktop, Power BI service, Excel, SQL Server Analysis Services, SQL Server Data Tools, SQL Server Integration Services, SQL Server Reporting Services, and BizTalk Server.
I have installed Oracle Client for Microsoft Tools 19.17 for (Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)) (V1032890-01.exe).

Please help me to sort this out.
Here are some rules you need to compliance:
You need to install the 64 bit version and only the 64 bit of SAP Nco.
You need to install the latest version of SAP Nco as well.
You need to install the .Net 4.0 version of SAP Nco as the data gateway host service and Microsoft SAP Adapter are build with .Net 4.5.
For more details about with SAP Nco version to pick for Azure Logic App, you could refer to this article.
Also, someone gets the same error like you, he download Nco connnector from SAP website and install in server then everything goes well.

I been have the same error. In my case have SAP in a private network and I use another machine with Data Gatewat to acces to SAP throught Logciapp.
This steps are not in SAP machine are in Midelware machine that will have Data Gateway to communicate with SAP.
Install Data Gateway
Install the SAP NCo library and .NET
Then for Data Gateway can recognize the SAP NCo library you will need to copy .dll located on SAP NCo folder installations to Gateway
folder installation.

Why Cognos Metric studio is missing from IBM Cognos-10?

I am using IBM Cognos 10 trial version and I am new to it. Here I created different types of reports. Recently I came to know that we can also create scorecard and strategy maps using Cognos Metric studio. Till now I just used Cognos Report studio and Cognos Framework manager. I have googled about how to open Cognos Metric studio but in every article I found that in Cognos Welcome page we can find the Metric studio, but in my Cognos welcome page there is no such kind of thing. See the following diagram.
I want to know how we can open Cognos Metric studio in IBM Cognos 10 trial version?
I have some doubts here, Is Cognos trial version they don't provide any Metric studio or we have to download it and configure it to the Cognos separately.
Or
Is the installation process which I followed is Wrong?
My another doubt is, Cognos Framework manager rpd file is enough to Scorecard type of things or we have to use Metric designer for this, anyhow I did not have Metric designer as well......
Can we do all things which we can do in Cognos Metric studio also using Report studio, if yes can anyone suggest me how to do scorecards in Cognos Report studio.
I don't know about trial version, but normal Metric Studio is a separate distribution.
There may be possibly two reasons for it that I know;
The Profile assigned to your User ID may not contain these
rights/permissions.
Can you login using Internet Explorer or Mozilla instead and see if it appears ? Sometimes the latest versions of Browser do not render due to some bugs in Cognos Connection code.

Users not able to upgrade or install my Windows Phone App

I have a Windows Phone App called Dimensions Weather and News here. Last when I updated My Application to version 1.2.0.0, some users are reporting that they are neither able to install the app nor update the app. The app downloads but then fails during installation. What can be the possible cause of this issue? Is there something wrong with my XAP or configuration?
Please note that all was working fine until I updated it to the latest version.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
