Name for Add-in in windows

Hi,

We have built an Add-in for Outlook and published it using Click Once. We would like to change name for the Add-in. Not the name that the Addin gets in outlook, but the name that it gets in windows (the name that for example appears in "Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features"). It seems like it is the "[assembly: AssemblyProduct("XXX")]" that results in the name appearing in Windows "Program and Features".
I wonder if there is another way to change the name, without changing the "[assembly: AssemblyProduct("XXX")]" attribute?

Hello Lars,

I don't think that a different way exist.

Note that changing that attribute creates a different product. Accordingly, you won't be able to replace the current add-in version with a new one as part of the update process; you will need to uninstall the current add-in and then install the new version (i.e. this requires two steps, not one).
