The only issue Microsoft has to worry about is legacy COM add-ins for Office products. The 'modern' method of creating add-ins has been around for awhile and has the benefit of also working on macOS and the web, plus not having an add-in that can crash the particular Office product, doesn't require an install on Windows, more secure, etc. etc... There are benefits to Microsoft and to end users. Migrating complex COM add-ins to modern add-ins is still a big lift. The app itself (Outlook) dropping COM support is simply given it no longer needs COM support for add-ins, it can drop COM itself. |
