Enabling and Disabling Plugins for Outlook in different Versions

2010

Create a Group Policy to Delete these keys

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Resiliency\DisabledItems]
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Resiliency\DisabledItems]
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\Resiliency\DisabledItems]

 

2013

The above does not work for 2013 and this key needs to disable mssphtb.dll ( Windows search for Outlook 2010 ) 

You will need to find your Outlook Add In name for the below ( I have used WorksiteEmailManagement.Connect )

If you install the plugin it should be listed in 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins

Add the following Registry Key which adds the same behaviour as if the user had chosen “Always enable this add-in” from the dialog shown above:
