Missing Add-ins in Outlook

Outlook add-ins are programs that run within Outlook and perform actions that Outlook doesn’t provide. Since add-ins are separate programs, occasionally an Outlook add-in can encounter problems, especially after a Office Update. This article shows how to fix the problem.

1.Re-enable Add-ins

• With Outlook open, click File.

* Click Options

* Click on Add-ins

* Make sure the add-ins program is listed in Active Application Add-ins.

* If the Add-ins program is not listed in Active Application Add-ins. Click Go in Manage: COM Add-ins.

* Check the programs you wan to add. For example, OneOutlook is for CRM.

* If you don’t see the Program in COM Add-ins, change the Manager to Disabled Item and then click Go.

* In the Disabled Items, highlight the item you want to use and then click on Enable.

2. Fix Disabled Add-ins

* If you see ADD-INS PROBLEM A problem was detected with an add-in and it has been disabled, click on View Disabled Add-ins, or View More details.

All the unhealthy add-ins will be displayed in the dialogue box named Slow and Disabled COM Add-ins. Make sure you want to add the program, OncOutlook in our example. Check Always monitor this add-in and click Close to save the settings.

* Now, restart the Outlook and check the Add-ins.

Also installing Windows update may fix the problem.
