MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Add-Ins / November 2003Disabled Items
When Outlook starts up, it sometimes offers the option to disable an add-in which it thinks caused problems. I know hoe to re enable the add-in by going to the Outlook/Help menu. But where in the registry does Outlook store this information? Basically I'd like to provide a UI for our addin to say if it has been disabled. Thanks.  SignatureMichael Tissington http://www.tabtag.com http://www.oaklodge.com I wonder if Outlook just changes the LoadBehavior value from 3 to 2 and the Help menu just queries the registry for unloaded addins.

But if the addin is not a traditional com add-in (loaded as an exchange client or ecf) then it will not have the same registry entries ...
