HDFS connection from Excel Power Query

Have a server with a Hadoop instance running on it.

Basically I'd like to connect to some HDFS table via Excel on my local machine. I know that Power Query Add-in helps in dealing that operation and provide an opportunity to establish connection with HDFS. But here is the thing-I have Excel 2016, so according to Microsoft Documentation, Power Query is already built in the Excel. But when I'm trying to do "Data-Get Data-From Other Sources" there is simply no option like "Get Data from From Hadoop File (HDFS)"

What am I doing wrong and what exact steps do I need to take to get access to HDFS from Excel?

For me HDFS shows up here: Hadoop

but not here: No Hadoop

What does the first New Query > From Other Sources look like for you?
