Hello Daniel,

Is it possible that you use a dotnet core style csproj? If so, such projects are not supported as they do not let you perform a COM registration of your add-in project.

Open your project Properties, switch to the Compile tab, check whether the "Register for COM interop" check box is enabled or disabled (at the bottom of the age).

Try to tick and untick it. Does this work?
