I presume you are referring to the "error" column in the predictions?

In the "More options" dialog in the Explorer, instead of using
"PlainText"  for "Output predictions", select "CSV". Open the
properties for the CSV output and select an appropriate output file.

The generated CSV file you should be able to import in Excel
(personally, I prefer LibreOffice's import dialog for CSV files).

Cheers, Peter
