I don?Â?Ð?ét see the Add Ins express tools I?Â?Ð?ém accustomed to on my VS 2015 toolbox. I only have ADXExcelControlAdapter, ADXWordControlAdapter, ADXPowerpointControlAdapter and ADXOutlookControlAdapter.
Did something change ? I was expecting the commandbar and ribbonbar etc..

Also when I right click on the module and select design view the addins express command bar does not show on the tab?

Is there something else I?Â?Ð?ém supposed to install ?

Hello Deron,

Only COM add-ins can create command bars and Ribbons (Ribbons are preferable for Excel 2007-2016). Your assembly can play several roles - it may contain several ADXAddinModule classes and a single ADXXLLModule class; such an assembly will install several COM add-ins and an XLL add-in.

You can start with creating a COM add-in or XLL add-in (use the New Project dialog) and then add another COM add-in module or XLL module (see the Add New Item dialog of your add-in project) to your assembly.
