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.

I had exactly the same problem and this worked
Solution: Open outlook 2007
click on tools – Trust center – add ins (at the bottom on manage change to EXCHANGE CLIENT EXTENSIONS and click on GO then untick ESET Outlook Plugin) please let me know if it worked for you…

Hi Banele,
I have the same issue but it won’t let my outlook to open so I can do those setting. How could you start your outlook. I am using outlook exchange and I am using it in 2 other PC but I cannot figure it in my laptop.
