Not Valid Add-in file

P

Paul Engel

I recovered my system from a disk crash, inclusing reloading WinXP and
restoring a backup. When I start Outlook, I am getting the following
message:

'[path]\Microsoft\AddIns\Load.dll' is not a valid Office Add-in.

Any ideas what's up. I have the following Add-ins in my Add-in list:
Redemption Helper Outlook Extension
Delegate Access
Deleted Item Recovery
Exchange Extensions commands
Exhcange Extensions property pages
Windows CE Support
Fax Server extension

AAlso on the list, but not checked, is Server Scripting.

I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed, and notice that after this message, it's
tool bar disappears from my tool bars.

What addins did you have installed before?

Try deleting extend.dat file - outlook will rebuild it without the missing
addin.

I'm not sure what was previously in the list.

I did a full disk search for extend.dat and found nothing. I'm on OL2003.
Would it be a different file that I'm looking for?

That's strange. I figured I could count on the XP file search utility. The
file was sitting right there...but Search couldn't find it.

I found in, deleted it and restarted Outlook. It recreated the file, but it
continued to throw the error. Any other options?

Interesting...I did a search on my Registry for Load.dll and found it under
the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Load.Permissions.
The description key was "Permission Utility" and the File reference was for
Load.dll.

This file is also refrenced under the Search Assistant\ACMru\5603, in the
000 key.

Does this help?

did you have a permission utility listed in tools, options, other, advanced,
addins? It's not something outlook installed.
