Hi everyone,

We have recently installed Visual Studio 2005 on several machines, and in
one case, add-ins never show up (the rest are fine). We have tried our own
add-in, downloaded and installed GhostDoc, moved the .AddIn files around,
checked/modified the Add-in paths, and none of them ever show up in the
Add-in Manager dialog. The other installations work perfect. What are we
missing?

Thanks,
Bob

We fixed this problem by reinstalling Visual Studio. We had previously
uninstalled VS on this one machine, and it seems that uninstalling VS does
not completely uninstall the product (shocker!). When we uninstalled *and*
deleted the install folder, then reinstalled, everything was fine.
