I created a VSTO Plugin for outlook (2016). During development i could press und debug then outlook started and I could debubg by plugin.
Now I created a deployment and installed it in outlook. Then I removed the installation from outlook by hitting remove in the "Com-AddIns ... "
After that I restarted outlook and tried to Debug my plugin. Outlook still starts but it does not add the plugin to outlook?
So I tried to install the plugin and then try to start debug from visual studio.
Now it says that it could not install the plugin as there is already such a plugin installed.
After that I tried to manually add the Plugin dll by selecting "Add" from the dialog referred to above. I selected the dll from bin\Debug. Outlook says that this is not a proper outlook plugin
do you have any idea what I could do to be able to debug my outlook plugin again?
Best regards

I am such a stupid person:
First it is not sufficient to remove the plugin by using the COM-diaog. You need to remove it using System Settings.
After the "old" plugin is removed completey from the system you need to reinstall the debug version. for this doubleclick on the *.vsto file in the bin\debug project of your visual studio project.
This should do the job.
You could use the "VSTOInstaller.exe " to uninstall your add-in. Please refer to the following link:
Uninstalling Office VSTO addins
I am loading an Office.js outlook addin (hello-world-addin sample https://github.com/jasonjoh/hello-world-addin) in my web account. The addin seems to be working fine in my old outlook account. However, if i test it in new outlook account, the addin doesnt show at all the Incoming folder (email read). Does anybody knows how to solve that issue?
This is a very strange situation that I am in; scratching my head for answers.
I have developed an outlook addin that works perfectly on my dev machine and on about 90 % of the clients machines.
The load behavior of the addin is 3.
On 10% of the users, outlook starts up without loading the addin despite the load behaviour being 3. The user can manually make the addin active by going to the addin manager on outlook but after a restart this addin reverts back to being inactive bbut load behavior never changes from 3.
I used Install Shield LE to package this addin. I don't even know where to debug anymore, I tried changing different load behaviour values but still the same outcome. The addin just won't load on startup with this set of users.
The company uses ZenWorks to automatically install the addin on all the PCs from the MSI i generate using install shield.
One weird thing is, If i go to the installation directory of the addin and install the addin using the .vsto deployment file, it works and gets loaded on outlook (but thats makes it two addins installed).
I also checked the Resiliency section on the registry and the addin isn't there.
I have faced this issue. To solve this, you need to manually delete the registry entries from the following path.
Open registry editor and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\<Your add-in> and change the LoadBehavior to 3.
If the above registry entry is not found, then look for HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\<Your add-in> and change the LoadBehavior to 3.
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Resiliency – remove the REG_BINARY keys found in DisabledItems and CrashingAddinList
where 15.0 is for outlook 2013.
If you are using 2010 outlook, replace 15.0 by 14.0 and for Outlook 2016 replace 15.0 by 16.0
Hope this helps.
I have a problem developing an Outlook 2010 add-in in Visual Studio 2010.
When I create a blank add-in project and just add messagebox to the startup event saying 'Test' everything is ok. Outlook starts, installs the addin and shows the message.
Then I close the Outlook and change the string to 'Test1'. Rebuild the solution and run it and then it just says 'Test' again. It doesnt update the plugin itself.
What's wrong? How to force Outlook to update the add-in?
Thank you
It should update automatically. You can try Build -> Clean solution (this unregisters the AddIn from the Outlook) then run it again.
I have create Excel 2003 addin and installer according with manual http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cristib/archive/2010/11/01/deploying-a-vsto-word-2007-add-in-to-all-users-visual-studio-2008-sp1.aspx
At that time I try to install addin on another machine. Installation pass success, but addin does not work. Excel does not shows any errors, but plugin is not loaded correctly and does not work.
Does it exists any way to diagnose problems with addin?
Duplicate question.
