Hello,


I am using Advanced Installer 8.8.1 for create an installer of Add-in of MS-Outlook.
Everything is working fine with installation but the problem occurred during uninstall the setup. When it removed by control panel or by installer it is not removed from Add-in (MS Outlook) what thing i have to do for resolve this problem.

Regards

Hello Mukti and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.

Do you receive any errors during the uninstall process? Also, have you tried restarting Outlook to see if the add-in gets loaded again.

Can you reproduce it on multiple machines?

All the best,
Daniel

Re: uninstall problem with Addin

Hello Mukti,

I suspect that the cause of this behavior may be a bug which was present in older version of Advanced Installer. Can you try to implement the workaround from our "Office Add-in" thread, then test your package on a clean machine and see if the behavior still reproduces?

All the best,

Hello Mukti,

Can you please send us the .AIP (project file) and your installation package (EXE or MSI file) to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate them?

All the best,
