Is Excel part of Office 2013, if so you could try an Office Repair. To do that open Control Panel, select Programs & Features, then scroll down to Microsoft Office 2013, Right Click on it & select Change, this will provide a couple of Repair options.

Also make sure Office is up to date. Office 2013 does not update through the usual Windows Update, but runs in the background, providing you have it set to Update Automatically. To check to see if you are up to date, open any Office program, such as Excel, select File on the top LH corner & then select Account. Next to Office Updates is a button saying Update Options, click on that & select Update Now. This will run the Update in the background so you can close Excel & continue working on your computer if you wish.

If you don't have Automatic Updates selected you can set that by clicking on the Enable Updates button.

Do you have more than one version of Outlook installed on your computer. If you have 2 versions of Office installed it's quite likely both versions of Outlook are installed. If this is the case, uninstall the oldest Outlook version & only use the newest one.
