I want to remove the add-in from my the Add-in list in the Excel 2016 in MAC. I have deleted the add-in from the physical path and unchecked the add-in from the Add-in list too. Closed all the instance of Excel. When I reopen the excel, it is showing the message that "Add-in is not in the specified path. Do you want to remove the from list?. I have given Yes. Still the add-in appears in the list. Kindly help me to remove the old add-in from the list.

I have Excel 365 64 bit and I'm trying to add an old add-in. In previous versions of Excel when I added my Add-In (Duplicate Master V2 by brettdj) it would create a new tab labeled Add-In and there would appear the routine. I've tried adding on my new Office 365 Excel Add-in, but I cannot find it anywhere.
Right-click the file in Explorer, choose Properties, and look for an option/button to unblock it. Then restart Excel. You should then see the AddIns tab hopefully!
Afternoon all,
I've just upgraded to Office 2013 and I'm trying to get to grips with it.
Since Excel 2003, through 2007 and 2010 I have created and used standard templates for new workbooks and sheets which I store in a specific location. I use the "At startup, open all files in" option in the Advanced Excel options to reference this location so each time a new workbook or sheet is opened, it uses my templates.
In Excel 2013 it works in the first workbook but any workbook after that I open just opens as standard. If I create a new instance of Excel by holding down Alt when I click on it, it also works correctly. It seems as if the change in Excel 2013 to open up workbooks in the same instance which behave as separate instances has the downside of the startup files not being accessed.
Does anyone know how to correct or get around this?
Edit: Same problem if I use the default XLStartup folder

According to MSDN, Excel will call xlAutoClose on an xll add-in, when the add-in is unloaded (be it because excel is closing or maybe the add-in is being removed manually).
Unfortunately xlAutoClose is also called when the user tries to close the spreadsheet, but then cancels when prompted to save their work.
According to the Excel Add-In dev documentation ("Financial Applications using Excel Add-in Development in C / C++"), when Excel is really closing, xlAutoClose will be followed by a call to xlAddInManagerInfo. Unfortunately I found it to be not true (tested both on 2007 and 2010 versions of Excel).
Is there any reliable way for an XLL add-in to distinguish between attempted spreadsheet close and actual spreadsheet close?
Thanks,
Luke
I have downloaded and installed the Mappit! Add-In for Excel. All went well. I used it on a file I had and the add-in functioned.
After installation, the add-in showed on the menu bar. Now, I cannot find the file on the menu bar or anywhere on the ribbon.
I have removed the file, re-extracted it, saved it in the default directory for add-ins for Excel 2013 as well as another location - it's only in one place at a time - and ensured that all locations are showing as a trusted location.
How do I get this to show so I can use it again? I am not having this issue with other add-ins.
I run Excel 2013 on Windows 8.1.
When loading Excel2013, an old add-in continues appearing in the tabs, although not requested
The add-in does not appear in VBA projects nor in any file in Office or Users folders
The add-in does not show in Excel options add-ins list
I wonder from where Excel loads it and looks for a way to get rid of it
Thanks

If this is a "phantom toolbar/menu" appearing in the addins tab you can remove it by right-clicking it and choosing delete.
Also make sure you have checked the COM addins list as well as the Excel addins list.
