Reading excel file throws a COMException

I am trying to read from an EXCEL file and display what i get.

Here is my Excel Class.

class Excel
    {
        private string path = "";
        _Application excel = new _Excel.Application();
         Workbook workbook;
         Worksheet worksheet;

        public Excel(string path, int sheet)
        {
            this.path = path;
            workbook = excel.Workbooks.Open(path);
            worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[sheet];
        }

        public string ReadCell(int row, int column)
        {
            row++;
            column++;

            if (worksheet.Cells[row, column].Value2 != null)
            {
                return worksheet.Cells[row, column].Value2;
            }
            else
            {
                return "";
            }
        }
    }

Here is how i call it

string pathToFile = @"K:\hours\tracking.xlsx";
Excel excel = new Excel(pathToFile, 1);
MessageBox.Show(excel.ReadCell(0, 0));

Here is my exception

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException HResult=0x80040154 Message=Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).

I Chcked if the path is correct and it is.

I think it may have to do with the References that i just implemented, but im not quite Sure.

I added

System.Windows.Forms.dll and Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll

If anyone has any idea please let me know.

Thank you.
