Is there a way to set the installer to install a VSTO2005 Outlook Add-In for
ALL uses on a machine?  Currently, it appears that it gets installed for only
the user logged in at the time of the install.

Hello mdpowers,

look in your projectfolder for the .csproj file.
Open the file with wordpad and look for the section:

 <PropertyGroup>
   <!--
       properites needed to register addins
       AddinRegistryHive - Root registry hive for the addin
       AddinRegistryKey  - Registry key where this addin is registered
   -->
   <AddinRegistryHive>CurrentUser</AddinRegistryHive>
   
<AddinRegistryKey>Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins</AddinRegistryKey>
 </PropertyGroup>

change CurrentUser to LocalMachine
Maybe that helps.
