Enable/Disable Foxit Add-ins in Outlook

 Answer

Follow these steps to enable or disable Foxit Add-ins in Microsoft Outlook:

1. Open Outlook and go to the "File" menu, click Options, and select the "Add-ins" option.
2. In the "Add-ins" window, find the Foxit PDF Creator COM Add-in.
3. Click the "Go..." button to open the "COM Add-ins" window.
4. Click the checkbox next to the Add-in name to enable or disable it.

  • To enable an Add-in: Make sure the checkbox next to the Add-in is checked, meaning it's enabled.
  • To disable an Add-in: Uncheck the box next to the Add-in, meaning it's disabled.

5. Click "OK" to save changes.
6. Restart Outlook for the changes to take effect. The enabled Add-ins will be available in Outlook.

If the Foxit PDF Creator COM Add-in is not in the list, click the "add" button to select the Foxit Add-in. Here is the file location:
