Dear Readers,

I am having one doubt, while installing addin setup, is that UAC must be enable or disable.
Thanks & Regards

Ranjith,

It's recommended to have UAC turned on. If you turn it off, Vista becomes Windows XP with a significant difference: a per-user add-in (it has RegisterForAllUsers=False) will not work for administrators. That's because Vista searches HKLM, not HKCU in this case.

Hi Ranjith,

Try moving all custom code from the constructor to the AddinInitialize event handler. The same applies to all variables initalized on the class level.
