My AVG Antivirus "broke" on my system after an attempt to upgrade to the
profesional version. I had to manually remove AVG by deleting folders and
editing the registry. However, the Outlook still tries to launch the AVG
add-in and displays the error: "The add-in "AVG Exchange Extension" (file
name [avgxch32.dll] / location) cannot be loaded and has been disabled by
Outlook (blah, blah)."

I've also deleted any mention of the file avgxch32.dll from the registry but
Outlook still thinks it's there somewhere.

I've installed a different antivirus program now.

So how do I remove or disable an add-in that no longer exists? How can I
get rid of this error message?
 
I just fixed it on my machine:bow:


In Outlook go to What's about Tools/Trust Center/AddIns/Exchange Client Extensions.


Uncheck the AVG Exchange Extension and restart Outlook and the problem disappears.

WOW.
