Weird behavior?

My "Add-in_express-Register" in VisualStudio works fine (without errors).
I can build my project whithout errors.
The Add-in is show in registry under ..outlook/addins (but with entry firststart)
file-options-addins shows now addin in outlook.
Outlook don?t start/show the addin

I have the newest Add-in installed. Manual register with adxregistrator.ex shows no error in the log.
The adxloader.log is not updated. (since last time it works)

Do you have any ideas, where I can look at for a research of my problem?

My setup of older add-in version (also with the newest adxloader) works fine.
Register the add-in under visual studio produces only a "standard" and "Adxstartmode" key :-(

Hello Bernd,

"Standard"? In what registry key do you see the "Adxstartmode" option?

Make sure your add-in isn't listed in the Slow and Disabled Add-ins dialog, see File | Info | Manage COM Add-ins.

Also check File | Options | Add-ins | "Manage" Disabled Items | Go...

The Registrykey is
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Name_AddIn.AddinModule
With "unregistration succeeded" the key is gone. With "register" its there and it have only the
(standard) reg_sz without value
ADXStartMode reg_sz with "FIRSTSTART"

It is not listed in slow and disabled add-ins and I can?t see it in Disabled elements.

If the add-in is installed, uninstall it, unregister your add-in from the IDE, then register it anew.

Done. There are also ony the two keys :-(
Does the visual studio addinexpress-register menu have a log function?
I also repaired office (2016), rebooted, did a new install of the add-in-expres-sw.

I assume you look at a wrong key. Does the add-in load?

If not, search the value of your add-in module's GUID attribute through the registry. When locating such a key, check it default value. This value points to adxloader.dll or adxloader64.dll; note the path - whether this path coincides with the path to your project's adx loader DLLs? To get some help with this search, check the info we provide in section Locating COM add-ins in the registry; see the PDF file in the folder {Add-in Express}\Docs on your development PC.

Thank you.
