Word 2007 Add-In Inactive

Kostadin Georgiev

Hello,
I am developing a Word 2007 Add-in. When I run it from visual studio
everything is ok. But when i install it on a clean machine without VS (
Office 2007 with support of .NET 2.0, VSTO SE runtime, .NET 2.0 ) using the
default setup project my add-in is inactive in word. If I try to add in
manyally form Word I receive an error - It is not a valid Word Add-In. I've
given Full Trust permissions to the assemblies with strong name matching the
add-in dll name.
When i run the install from the VS Solution Explorer the Add-in runs
correctly even when i'm not running it form VS.
I've read this post but my problem still exists:

I've read it but it doesn't help.
One more thing. I've developed a smart tag also and it is loaded only if I
install it into GAC. If i don't install it into GAC and just give it Full
Trust permissions by using the strong name evidence it's not loaded into
Office. What polocy should I specify so no install in GAC will be needed?

Did you read the newest VSTO 2005 SE deployment whitepaper
