Unpivot an Excel matrix/pivot-table?

Oh, well, it’s a little complicated.
One of the problems is, the wizard-callup shortcuts don’t work in non-english versions of excels (damn, at home I would have the English version, but here at work…)

But youtube videos can be deleted, so to make it a solid SO answer:

First, you need to go to “Options”, and add the menuband-item “Pivot table and PivotChart Wizard”.
