UpSlide Office addon fails as a FlexApp

Description:

This is a known issue with the UpSlide Microsoft Office add-in. The UpSlide add-in has a dependency on the .NET Framework's Global Assembly Cache (GAC) structure, and it specifically looks for the %LOCALAPPDATA%\assembly folder during initialization.

Process:

You can use a variety of processes to address this.

For Enterprise Deployments: If you're managing this across multiple users or in a virtualized environment consider:

1. Group Policy deployment to pre-create the folder structure
2. Logon scripts that verify and create the folder if missing
3. UpSlide MSI customization to include folder creation in the installation process
4. (Recommended) Add as a Pre-activation or potentially Post Activation script to create the folder  %LOCALAPPDATA%\assembly.
   1. CMD
      1. if not exist "%LOCALAPPDATA%\assembly" mkdir "%LOCALAPPDATA%\assembly"
