Hi,
I'm writing an add-in and trying to test it out with the experimental hive,
but can't figure out how to get the add-in to work with JUST the exp hive...
this means it effects my regular development env also, sometimes causing the
add-in to not build because of double .dll use.
I'm using VS2005 and am registering the add-in with a .Addin file, and have
tried making the <Version></Version> field be 8.0Exp which doesn't work. Is
there any way I can seperate this add-in to only work with the experimental
hive?

AFAIK, XML registration for add-ins is not related at all with registry
hives. Some folders used to store XML add-in files are for all users, and
others are for the current user.

Hi, you could register your add-in using the old method of placing keys in
the registry. Just add your keys inside of the 8.0Exp hive.
