IT Home reported on October 20th that according to Microsoft's recently released support documents,The new version of Win11 Outlook will no longer support Component Object Model (COM) add-ins.
The content of the Microsoft support document for IT Home Translation is as follows:
In the new Outlook for Windows, web add-ons can be fully supported without requiring additional processing from partners.
COM add-ins are no longer supported in the new version of Outlook for Windows, but they can continue to be used in the classic version of Outlook for Windows applications.
COM add-ins can manipulate Outlook in multiple ways, but this often leads to Outlook instability and crashes. Web add-ins provide a sandbox environment for running add-ins, and are checked and balanced to ensure Outlook is more stable and powerful.
There are some interface differences between COM and web add-ins, which can provide Outlook users with a more consistent and stable experience.
Note: Classic Outlook supports web add-ins and will continue to obtain the latest web add-in features. We are enriching the web add-on platform with modern features and richer integration for the new version of Outlook and the classic Outlook for Windows.
For example, automatically running an add-on when an event changes without interrupting the user, allowing users to run the add-on to insert multiple projects, validate and remediate projects when sent, enhance phishing reports, provide contextual email prompts, update email or event details, and more.
COM add-ins provide developers with a way to extend the functionality of Office applications to perform custom tasks. COM add-ins are typically used for automatic execution in response to clicking the CommandBar button, form, or dialog box, or specific other events.
