Hi Siraj,

Thank you for your post.

Please refer to: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/bb851702.aspx

For Visual Studio Add-in deployment, you also can try using Inno Setup.
Here is a good tutorial: HOWTO: Create a setup for a Visual Studio 2005 / 2008 add-in using Inno Setup

FYI:
Recommended reading the following article about the issue that Office instances do not load any Add-In, which provides information to troubleshoot common problems of add-ins for Visual Studio or Office applications (shared add-ins).
Please check: HOWTO: Troubleshooting Visual Studio and Office add-ins

For more resources of Visual Studio Add-in, please see: http://www.mztools.com/resources_vsnet_addins.aspx

BTW, this forum is for the support of Visual Studio installation. Since your issue is related to VSTO, if you have any further concern, you could post your thread on Visual Studio Tools for Office forum. This will make answer searching in the forum easier and be beneficial to other community members as well.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hope this helps! Have a good week. :)
