I have written a very simple add-in that adds a button to the ribbon of outlook (C#).
I have spent days trying to get this very simple add-in to install on another machine using the clickonce method.
I have published clickonce to ftp using Visual Studio. All fine so far.
Upon running the resulting vsto (or setup.exe) on a different machine I am getting the error:
'System.Security.SecurityException: Customized functionality in this application will not work because the certificate used to sign the deployment manifest for Add-In or its location is not trusted. Contact your administrator for further assistance.'
I understand the idea behind a certificate being required to remove rogue add-ins being added to Outlook. I have signed the clickonce deployment using a test certificate on my machine.
Simply is it possible, without paying for a third-party certificate, to give a user the clickonce url and them install it without me having to do anything to their machine? (and/or domain etc.) This is ideally to be used by lots of enterprise users. Altering their environment isn't practical.
Many thanks.
