hi all,<br />
<br />
I'm looking for information on how to script the removal of some excel add-in.<br />
<br />
what I tried so far is some PowerShell that creates a COM object with excel.application, locates the add-in to remove and set it to not installed with:<br />
<br />
($wb.Application.AddIns | Where-Object { $_.name -eq 'sapbex.xla' }).Installed = $false<br />
<br />
but when I open excel, the add-in is still enabled.<br />
<br />
is there someone here with more information on this, or that has a clue about what I am doing wrong?<br />
<br />
thank you!
