Outlook Add-In installation Problem

Question

Hi,

I have created one outlook(2010) appointment add-in as per requirement. When I run it from VSTO 2010 either under Debug or Release mode, it is working fine.

Now, I want to deploy it on multiple client machines, for that, I have created setup project and added project output of above Add-In project and built it. It also added required utilities and framework dll into it.

Now I am running this setup on my local machine and checking it into outlook, however it is not loading. I tried to add it manually but it is showing message as "something.dll is not a valid Outlook Add-In".

How can I resolve this issue.
