Thank you in advance for your help.

I create an Add-in in .NET by using the wizard ( language is C#). Once my
core project is created I F5 the add-in and it shows up just fine in my TOOL
menu, along with a nice little happy face.

Now, when I shut down my project and IDE for the day and come back the next
day, my Add-in WILL NOT load into the TOOL menu no matter what I do. It is
in my Add-In Manager and the correct checkboxes are selected, but still it
will not show up in my TOOL list.

This is just with the skeleton project the wizard created. I have changed
NOTHING.

Does anyone have a work around or know what I am doing wrong? I am not
changing any of my settings. I am also "BUILDING" my project before I
shutdown because earlier I ran into an issue with it telling me it couldnt
find the Add-in (And then unregistering it) when I reloaded the project until
I did this.

How can I bring it back into the Toolbar? The add-in manager says it IS
loaded.

Thank you again!

I'm going to guess, because I haven't done any add ins. I assume this is an
add-in for visual studio (you didn't say).

My guess is that each time you recompile, you are changing the version
number of your assembly.
(you control the version number).

This means that the version that you registered with .NET is no longer
available.

My suggestion: compile the add-in. Then use the installer to install it on
your machine, in a seperate directory. Test it. When you want to
recompile, the act of recompilation won't affect the running version. Shut
down VS. Uninstall and reinstall your add in, then restart VS.

Hope this helps
