Error: The Add-in ‘ESET Outlook Plugin’ (C:\PROGRA~1\ESET\ESETNO~1\EPLGOU~1.DLL) cannot be loaded and has been disabled by Outlook. If no update is available, please uninstall the Add-in.

Problem:  After uninstalling an ESET security product, the following message is displayed upon launching Outlook:

The Add-in ‘ESET Outlook Plugin’ (C:\PROGRA~1\ESET\ESETNO~1\EPLGOU~1.DLL) cannot be loaded and has been disabled by Outlook. If no update is available, please uninstall the Add-in.

Solution:  This article from ESET’s  knowledgebase recommends deleting the “extend.dat” file in the user’s Outlook folder, but this does not always work.  The first inclination that most users would have is to go into Outlook’s add-in manager (or Trust Center – depending on the version) and look for an ESET add-in to disable, but the add-in is not there.  The ESET add-in is actually loaded into Outlook as an “Exchange Client Extension”.  Once the ESET add-in is removed from the Exchange Client Extension list in Outlook, this problem should go away.
