    I added the dropbox plugin into Outlook 365 via appsource.microsoft.com a year ago and have been trying to remove this useless add-in ever since. It will not go away no matter what. it's no longer in the add-ins dialog box. the checkbox in Dropbox app settings is unchecked. i keep removing it from the ribbon and it keeps coming back. i installed outlook on a new computer and that add-in appeared there. don't ever install this add-in, you can never leave. 
    please help me remove this devil add-in

    Change the load behavior to a value of 0 in the registry. 

    Check here: HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Office/Outlook/Addins

    The path may be slightly different, but it should be in that location or somewhere else nearby in the '../Office' key

    What's your account type?

    For Exchange account, add-ins are stored in the mailbox instead of local computer. That's why you can still see this add-in on a new computer. We can try removing it via the web mail.

    If it’s not listed in registry, please click “Get Add-ins” under Home tab. Click My Add-ins. Search it under Store add-ins or Admin-managed add-ins section. If you can find it click the icon and choose ‘Remove’.

    Besides, we can try manually removing the option from Ribbon to see if it helps:

    Go to File > Options > Customize Ribbon. Select the option and then choose Remove.

    What’s more, have a look whether you’ve configured your account on other devices. Sometimes although you remove the add-in from Outlook desktop, it may still exist on other devices which make it reappear.

    Any updates, please feel free to post back.

    Regards,

    Perry
