Excel Store Add-in is not saving. Does anyone know the exact location where this is being saved? The add-in is not listed in avtive add-in list within excel.

Below is what I am capturing in DEM.

[IncludeRegistryTrees]
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel

[IncludeFolderTrees]
<AppData>\Microsoft\Excel
<AppData>\Microsoft\AddIns

[IncludeFiles]
<LocalAppData>\Microsoft\Office\Excel.officeUI

Hi, make an export of your registry of these keys when you have the correct settings:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel\Addins\
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Wow6432Node\microsoft\office\Excel\Addins

And after a log off/log on, verify that your settings is gone, and do another export of the keys and compare them

If these settings are located in the HKLM, you may deploy them with a GPO..

Is this a recent issue? just this week I was getting the same unexpected result. If you add it from a network or otherwise persistent location it will load in consistently, at least for us
