Installing outlook com add in for standard users on terminal server
"IceKettle" <Master_5iy[ at ]hotmail.com> 10/10/2008 9:48:31 AM
Hi,

we have written a dll that we want to use as an outlook com add-in for our
users on terminal server. It installs and works perfectly for the
administrator log in. When I go to install under a standard user, I can
select the dll in the com add ins window, but when I click ok and go back to
the list of com add ins the window is empty.

Is this a security issue? If so what do I need to do to allow a standard
user to use or install the com add in?

Thanks.

If the addin is registered in HKLM it should be available no matter what
Windows profile is used, if registered in HKCU it's only registered for that
admin login.
