I am having trouble figuring out how to add the teams meeting scheduler add-in to Microsoft Outlook, as I would like to use it to send meeting invites. I have tried following the suggestions in previous threads (logging in and out of teams and restarting outlook), but that did not resolve the issue.

After installing Microsoft Teams the Outlook Add-in fails to load even after making sure it is enabled in the Outlook COM Add-ins. I have used the fix below a number of times and it fixes the issue every time.
