Hi,

I have created a addin in Visual studio 2008 with addin express 2010 premium version and using outlook 2007 and windows XP SP 3.

The Addin is installed but it is not listing in the COM Add-ins in the outlook. Please let me know who can I over come this?

Thanks,
Malik Z.

Hi Malik.

What is set in the SupportedApps property of the addinmodule? Do you see the add-in in Outlook if you register it in Visual Studio?

Malik, do you register the add-in for all users (RegisterForAllUsers property of the addinmodule is true)?

Sergey,

It is set to True. If I manually right click the Add-in project and select Register ADX Project, then it is registered by msi it is installed but not listing in the outlook Addin lister.

Thanks,

In this case, if you install the add-in in Vista or Windows 7, you need to run the setup.exe file to install the add-in.

Do you install the add-in inder the admin account?
Also please check the custom actions of the setup project. They should use the '/privileges=admin' command.
