Does Microsoft Office 365 Business - Microsoft Store Version supports VSTO COM Add-ins?

Add-in not listed on Disabled Add-ins list either.

I've created Dummy Add-in entry as registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins\Dummy with it's required values (Description, FriendlyName, LoadBehavior, Manifest).

I've put dummy contents for listed key pair values, with no Add-in being listed under COM Add-ins list (for Word in this case).

Add-in appears on COM Add-ins list under Microsoft Office 365 Business, Click-to-Run Version (another machine), but not appearing under Store Version.

Microsoft Office 365 Business, Microsoft Store Version was preinstalled on Dell Latitude laptop.

The answer seems to be "No, it doesn't". Under the section "Is Office in the Microsoft Store any different than an existing Office desktop suite?" in the FAQ it says:

Some Office add-ins may not work if Office is installed via the Microsoft Store. We're working to make Office in the Microsoft Store compatible with more add-ins.

There is a UserVoice suggestion that requests this functionality.
