Hi,
We have a client using our XLL UDF/COM addin. The addin was working fine until recently the UDF returns #NAME error. The COM addin is working fine.
We?Â?Ð?éve confirmed/tried the followings:
1. Both COM and XLL addin have enabled and shown in File->Options->Addin->Active Application Addins
2. The OPEN registry key exists in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\Options
3. Reinstalling the addin doesn?Â?Ð?ét resolve the issue
Comparing client?Â?Ð?és and my adxloader log, my client's log are missing log events listed below. I can replicate client?Â?Ð?és adxloader log events when (1) the XLL addin disabled in excel or (2) the registry key above deleted.
What do these missing log events tell us besides the 2 things I've mentioned? Are there anything else that can prevent the excel loading the XLL addin? TIA.

Hello Ming,
Do you see your functions in the Functions dialog on that machine?

Hello Ming,
Is your XLL add-in listed in the Excel Add-ins dialog? If yes, and if the name mentions "loader", it may be caused by the customer selecting the 'Require Application add-ins to be signed by Trusted Publisher' check box (see File | Options | Trust Center | Trust Center Settings | Add-ins) *and* your add-in having no or invalid digital signature.
