Add-in manager not disabling add-ins in Visual Studio?

Friday, March 07, 2008

I stumbled across this problem today, and found an interesting feedback page to Microsoft regarding the issue: http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=105560

Workaround:

  • Regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\AddIns
  • Go into the add-in key you're interested in disabling
  • Manually set the LoadBehavior entry to 0x0
