Title: Antispam in MS Outlook not loading
Post by: SusanLeake on January 06, 2019, 08:39:40 AM

Avast Internet Security 19.1.2360

Outlook add-ins centre tells me that avast com add-in failed "Not loaded: runtime error occurred during the loading of the Com Add-in."  This is since the update of yesterday.

Office 2016 and Win10. I am getting some emails marked as spam but they are not being moved and the toolbar is missing

Thanks for the info. I tried to reproduce it with Win10 64bit + Outlook 2016 and did not find any issue with avast add-in. Could you please try to reinstall Anti-spam component?

- click Start button > Settings > Apps
- select Avast and click Modify button
- on Avast setup screen deselect Anti-spam component and click Change button
- when operation is finished click Done button and restart computer
- after reboot repeat previous steps and when Avast setup screen appears select Anti-spam component to install it

Hope it will help.
HK

Hi,

are you using 64bit version of Office 2016 or 32bit?

Thanks,
Petr

i'm having the same issue.  I cannot get the Avast COM Add-in to load.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled.  Did not work.  I have Microsoft Windows 10 64 bit, and Outlook from Office 365 32 bit.  It has been this way since last update.

I am having the same problem, Win 10 64 and Office Pro Plus 2016. Tried the uninstall feature/re-install, made no difference.

Win 10 =  64bit MS Office = 32bit.  Have not tried the uninstall/reinstall as yet but judging from the replies below it will not work.
