Suggestion to fix VSTO Trust problem

Open mcdoubleyou opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hello,

to avoid the prompt descriped here without signing the VSTO simple change the following registry entries.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\OutlookFileDrag

Manifest REG_SZ C:\Program Files\Tony Federer\Outlook File Drag\OutlookFileDrag.vsto|vstolocal simply delete: file:///

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\OutlookFileDrag

Manifest REG_SZ C:\Program Files\Tony Federer\Outlook File Drag\OutlookFileDrag.vsto|vstolocal simply delete: file:///

This way the system recognize the VSTO is already in program files and it is trusted on default.

Cheers!

That's interesting. Do you have a resource link you can share regarding this?

According to this Microsoft article, since I'm using Windows installer to install the add-in, I need to use the file:/// prefix.
