We have an Office Add-In installed and working on many systems, but it is failing to load on one. (Our tracking #15852)

It registers successfully (log appears below). When Word or Outlook (2010) is opened, the add in is listed among Disabled Add-Ins. Its "Location" is blank, where it should show the C:\Program Files...path leading to adxloader.dll. Attempting to load it produces no error message, but it remains disabled.

No adxloader.log is created at all.

adxaloder.dll.manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<assemblyIdentity name="Modules.OI, PublicKeyToken=fcb7d2904f2c6795" />
<loaderSettings generateLogFile="true" shadowCopyEnabled="false" privileges="user" configFileName="Modules.OI.dll.config" />
</configuration>
