How to hide or remove a button from outlook Ribbon?

How to hide or remove button (Office Add-ins) from Ribbon? this button appears when compose a new message?

I tried all the following methods, but no one of them works (with no error raised).

Applied this registry key;

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\WebExt]
"StoreButtonInRibbonHomeTabAllowed"=dword:00000000

Untick option Add-ins from customize ribbon @ Main Tabs. Removed Office Add-ins from customize ribbon @ Compose Tools.

I am using office 2016.

The changes in the windows registry may not apply immediately. Here is what the How To Disable GET ADD-INS Button in Outlook article states:

Close Outlook and force a replication use GPUDATE /FORCE (not as an Admin because this is a local user) or reboot and you will see that the GET ADD-INS button is not just disabled, it is removed all together. Note that we have noticed that the first time Outlook is started it takes an extra minute or two, which is very strange but acceptable.

Read more about the windows registry key in the Update adds the Store button to the Home tab ribbon in Outlook 2013 article.
