I let my customer decide in which office app the plugin should appear using the code mentioned there: http://www.add-in-express.com/forum/read.php?FID=1&TID=5132
This works fine on x86 (32bit) workstations, but seems to have a problem on any x64 system using 32bit MS Office. The addin is loaded all the time.
Is there any way to fix this?
I'm using Add-in-Express Version 7.3 Release (build 1213)

Hello Richard,
I suppose there is (was) some incorrectness in the code and this results (ed) in creating the registry entry below and specifying LoadBehavior = 3 for every Office application:
{HKLM and HKCU}\Software\Microsoft\Office\{an Office application}\Addins\{your add-in}

I suppose you meat the entry in the Wow6432Node subkey ({HKLM and HKCU}\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\{an Office application}\Addins\{your add-in} )? Should I rather delete the whole key or set the loadbehavior to an different value?

Richard,
I meant {HKLM and HKCU}\Software\Microsoft\Office\{an Office application}\Addins\{your add-in}.
Before deleting a key you must make sure that you can delete it safely. First, uninstall your add-in if it is installed. Then in the Delphi IDE, specify that your add-in supports all Office applications, register it and then unregister it. Then check if the add-in is mentioned in any of the Office applications that you need to support. Then check if any of the {HKLM and HKCU}\Software\Microsoft\Office\{an Office application}\Addins\{your add-in} keys exists; there should be no such kes.
If the issue occurs on a non-development PC, I would uninstall the add-in, modify it to support all required Office application, install it and uninstall it to clean the registry.
During all these manipulations, the code that modifies SupportedApps must be commented out.
