Add-in does not launch in "New Outlook" #4318

Provide required information needed to triage your issue

Your Environment

Summary

Only the top level profile will launch the add-in when Outlook is changed to "New Outlook". Normally, the add-in should be activated in all profiles. https://github.com/OfficeDev/office-js/issues/3996 I asked a similar question at but it was closed, so I am posting it again. It appears that this issue has not been resolved yet. When do you plan to support add-ins for secondary accounts?

Current behavior

If you have multiple profiles, the add-in will be activated only for the account that appears at the top level. It will not be activated for all other profiles. The expected behavior for all profiles is as follows 1.Launch Outlook. 2.Install the Office add-in to Outlook. 3.Specify the recipient and click the "Send" button. 4.The Office add-in will start and a sample display will appear. 5.Click "close(true)" in the sample display. 6.An email will be sent.

Steps to reproduce

1.Upload "manifest.xml" to Outlook on the web and install the add-in (the XML file is stored in sample.zip) 2.Open a command prompt and navigate to the corresponding directory. 3.Run "npm install". 4.Run "npm run dev-server". 5.Launch Outlook. 6.Change to "New Outlook. 7.Select a profile other than the one shown at the top. 8.Installs add-ins for selected accounts. 9.Compose and send an email. 10.The Office add-in will start and a sample display will appear. 11.Click "close(true)" in the sample display. 12.An email will be sent.

I am storing the sample add-in.
