Hello David,

You haven't deployed Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.dll (version 12). The CLR has found a Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.dll file which is of a different version or localization or both; it can't be used.

David,

Make sure that you deploy the very same DLL which you use to build the add-in. The issue is a mismatch between two assemblies: a DLL referenced by your add-in and the assembly which is found on the target machine. The mismatch may be caused by a different version, localization, bitness, and probably by some other things.

Does it work on a new empty add-in project?
