Outlook moaning about slow Add-on start #269

Open Mannshoch opened 5 years ago

Please speed-up the Add-on Start. So I do not need to tell Outlook to ignore this app measurements.

How do you tell Outlook to ignore app measurements?

I've had this problem too, with users disabling the add-on and then having issues with the add-on not loading on startup which I had to adjust in the registry because there doesn't seem to be any other ay to change the "startup" setting....

We did already optimize the startup. Those issues can't be avoided totally but there are those mentioned registry settings to customize the behaviour, see also

Nice Workaround... but still a workaround. Is there no possibility to kind of lazy load or load the add-on in two steps or something else?

I ran into the same problem and fixed it following this explanation: https://www.slipstick.com/outlook/always-load-an-outlook-addin/

As Microsoft writes, it seems to be possible to set those registry entries with the installer. So would this be a solution?

As far as I know, plugins like Citavi do that for Microsoft word.
