Hi i'm just wondering whether there is a way i can Unregister the add-in in the code itself after checking a condition in the AddinModule_AddinInitialize event. The problem context is i have installed my add-in in a Multi-User environment and i get some high resource usage notifications.

Currently what i do in the AddinModule_AddinInitialize event is

if the condition fails(or false)
i do following actions 

AdxOlFormsManager1.Items.Clear()
AdxRibbonTab1.Visible = False
AdxCommandBar1.Visible = False

Thanks in Advance Guys

Hi Chathum,

You are on the right avenue. There is no way to unregister an add-in at runtime. Instead, you can disable the add-in UI and event handlers in the project. Please use the AddinInitialize event handler to turn off command bars and the OnRibbonBeforeLoad event to turn off Ribbon UI (just set the e.XML to an empty string). Also please don't forget about the event handlers of your add-in project. You need to disable them too.

Thanks for your reply Eugene,
The problem i am having is i installed this on a Citrix environment for all-users using the Admin account. I need my addin to be used only by a group of users.(Not all) But when the outlook is running the addin actually runs(technically) though it does not appear to users. As a result of this i am getting high usage alert on CPU context switching(can provide you some screenshots if you like). Any suggestions on that ?

Thanks

Hi Chathum,

Is the http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/office-2003-resource-kit/how-office-performs-certificate-revocation-HA001140308.aspx option enabled?

Hi Chathum,

That is the cause of the delay issue. Please try to disable it and then let me know whether it helps.

Hi there,
Will there be any other impacts if we disable it on Citrix server ?

Thanks

Hi Chathum,

Yes, it will. The time of loading your add-ins will be decreased. Please let me know the results in any case.
