Can't debug Outlook add-in project

Question

I have a problem in Outlook 2010 add-in project, After first debugging for the project I can't debug it one more, it show me the following warning :

The following module was built with optimizations enabled or without debug information: {Path to DLL} To debug this module, change its project build configuration to Debug mode. To suppress this message, disable the 'Warn if no user code on launch' debugger option.

and it didn't take any change I have made.

What do you mean by *"it didn't take any change I have made"*? Does this mean you added code features that aren't being used? — SliverNinja - MSFT, Oct 16 '12 at 13:11

To debug, you need debug symbols and non-optimized code - make sure you have Debug symbols enabled for your build configuration, i.e. Define DEBUG constant checked and optimizations disabled, i.e. Optimize code unchecked.

What is the name of the active build configuration? – SliverNinja - MSFT Oct 15 '12 at 14:00
Try doing a Rebuild (*Clean and Build*) of your solution. It sounds like the assembly used by Outlook isn't the same assembly you are building. – SliverNinja - MSFT Oct 16 '12 at 13:06
Its very strange behavior, I have tried same thing in another computer and it works fine... – kaito ked Oct 16 '12 at 13:13
It sounds like you have a registry issue. Take a look at your [registry hive for Outlook addins](http://stackoverflow.com/a/12264829/175679). – SliverNinja - MSFT Oct 16 '12 at 13:16
I didn't find register hive for my outlook addin, but what's the solution for this problem? – kaito ked Oct 16 '12 at 13:36
After a build, what is the value of your manifest key in the hive `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins`? – SliverNinja - MSFT Oct 16 '12 at 13:56
there is no manifest key in this hive, and also there is no hive for my new add in. – kaito ked Oct 17 '12 at 06:12
I am sorry, I wrongly looked at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE...the manifest key contains the VSTO file path.. its like this "file:///D:/SourceCode/OutlookAddIn5/OutlookAddIn5/bin/Debug/OutlookAddIn5.vsto|vstolocal" – kaito ked Oct 17 '12 at 06:43

I found it...just change the extension in manifest key from .VSTO to vsto|‌vstolocal...Thank you a lot SliverNinja. – kaito ked Oct 17 '12 at 06:57
