how can i automatically enable an addin after a user drags .dll into sw?
i am trying to find out how i can enable an addin and set it to load at startup after a user installs the addin i created. i plan on having them drag/drop the .dll file from a network drive. i thought i could use a registry key to set the addin to on/off, but this doesn't work. below is the registry key for the addin when its on.
windows registry editor version 5.00
[hkey_local_machine\software\solidworks\addins\{7aad1b32-87ce-4db5-ab11-99aad05b8f58}]
@=dword:00000001
"description"="myaddin description"
"title"="myaddin"

thanks wayne, that worked. i had to set both registry keys to 1.
