I created an outlook addin with a few references to dlls i created myself and a few 3rd party dlls.
The addin works fine on my development machine.

However when i try to create a wix-setup-project the option for 'Generate dual-purpose setup project' is grayed out.

Has anyone an idea why?

Hello Roland,

Make sure your add-in is per-user: 1) the RegisterForAllUsers property of the add-in module is set to false and 2) the privileges attribute in adxloader.dll.manifest is set to "user".

Thank you Andrei,

the RegisterForAllUsers property of the add-in module was set to TRUE.

Everything works fine now.
