I just upgraded a user from Office 2003 to Office 2007. After activating Office 2007, when I go into PowerPoint, I get this message:
"PowerPoint couldn't load the add-in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\PDFMaker\PDFMaker.ppa."
When I go to Manage Add-ins, that one doesn't show up. More importantly, when I explore to that location, there is no PDFMaker.ppa file under the PDFMaker folder. I was able to use this code that I found online in the PowerPoint VBA Editor:
Sub ListAddins()
Dim oAddin As AddIn
Dim oCOMAddin As COMAddIn
Dim sAddins As String
sAddins = "Standard Add-ins" & vbCrLf & "================" & vbCrLf
For Each oAddin In Application.AddIns
sAddins = sAddins & oAddin.Name & vbCrLf & vbTab & oAddin.FullName & vbCrLf
Next oAddin
sAddins = sAddins & vbCrLf & "COM Add-ins" & vbCrLf & "============" & vbCrLf
For Each oCOMAddin In Application.COMAddIns
sAddins = sAddins & oCOMAddin.ProgID & vbCrLf & vbTab & oCOMAddin.Description & vbcrlf
Next oCOMAddin
MsgBox sAddins
End Sub
The result I got is attached, but it basically showed that PDFMaker.ppa as one of the add-ins.
So how do I get rid of an add-in that doesn't show up in the Manage Add-Ins screen, and that doesn't even seem to exist? Hitting OK to the message every time PowerPoint is opened isn't an option - the user this was installed for is the COO of our company.
