Details
Currently, the preview version can revert to the classic version of Outlook. Doing so will allow the plug-ins to work as expected. It is unknown if this will be available in the final version released by Microsoft.

Microsoft has indicated on their website that they will no longer support COM add-ins with this new version of Outlook. Please click here for more detailed information.
CCH will need to redesign and re-develop new plug-ins for Microsoft Office. That work will begin in 2024, however, release dates have not yet been determined. Until we can provide updated versions of the Office Plug-ins that are supported by the new Outlook, we recommend that firms do not install this latest version of Microsoft Outlook.
