How to install the Word addIn, without the vsto file or the setup.exe

I want to install my Word addIn on another PC. I know I can run the vsto file to install the addIn or I can use the setup.exe, but that's not what I want. I want to manually install the addIn. That means, I must know where to put my assemblies and how I connect them to word.

I found a solution. You have to write only five things into the registry: enter image description here

This can be done with a small script. The Value "Wert nicht festgelegt" means "No Value"

The Location in the registry is Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins\AssemblyName

The security values will be written automatically in the registry Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VSTO\Security\Inclusion
