That's interesting as a lot of installers ask "just for you or for all users".
I do not believe this is a defect in OneMore or its setup. I suspect it's due to your corporate policy blocking scripts or executables from running during login for your domain account.
When OneMore is installed, it creates a Windows "Active Setup" entry in the Registry. This is a standard, built-in Windows feature. When a user logs in, Windows checks this entry for things to do and, if it hasn't done them before, performs the action one-time. For OneMore, this means applying the necessary Registry settings to register the add-in with OneNote. Specifically, it reruns the OneMore installer with a parameter that only touches the Registry for the user; it doesn't touch anything else and presumes OneMore is otherwise installed on the system.
This Active Setup approach is ideal for this use case because it allows admin-like access to the Registry. Otherwise, since you're domain account doesn't have this permission, there's no way to manually registry the add-in.
So I would check with your IT department to ask if they're blocking Active Setup on your machines.
Problem to Solve
AddIn is only configured in local administrator account. My domain account has no local admin rights. But there is a local account with admin rights and I know the password to use it.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
I tried to reinstall it, logout + login, reboot etc. No change.
Is there a way to add the Add-In manually for the domain user?
Expected Behavior
Installer work for domain user, too.
Environment (if applicable)
Additional Context
%localappdata%\temp\OneMore.log in not generated, because OneNote doesn't load the AddIn at all.
