Enabling and disabling add-ins
Once the Add-in Manager is open, you can enable any of the add-ins that are available in the All view or you can disable any of the add-ins being used by Outlook in the My Add-ins view. Any changes made here will affect your account regardless of which method you use for Outlook.
Note: There may be certain admin-managed add-ins that cannot be disabled.
To view all of the add-ins available to you, open the Add-in Manager, and select the All view. You can search for a particular add-in in the search field on the upper-right or you can scroll through the list of available add-ins.
