Analyzing Outlook Add-in Load Time with ControlUp Script

Posted on November 28, 2023

A user asked if anyone had a working ControlUp script to analyze Outlook Add-in load time. The user was provided with a script that specified a path to the Outlook Add-in manifest file, created a new Outlook Application object, recorded the start time, loaded the Add-in, recorded the end time, calculated the load time, then displayed the result in seconds. The user thanked the other for the help.


Read the entire ‘Analyzing Outlook Add-in Load Time with ControlUp Script’ thread below:

Hi, someone maybe already have a working CU script that shows the Outlook Add-in load time to analyze quickly if customer tells outlook start is slow?


Give this a whirl Simon. I don’t have outlook to test this script.

https://chat.openai.com/c/1024ac91-f4b9-4d77-b258-a3edd1ab8ff0

Specify the path to the Outlook Add-in manifest file

$manifestPath = "C:\Path\To\Your\AddinManifest.xml"

Create a new Outlook Application object

$outlook = New-Object -ComObject Outlook.Application

Record the start time

$startTime = Get-Date

Load the Add-in

$outlook.Addins.Add($manifestPath)

Record the end time

$endTime = Get-Date

Calculate the load time

$loadTime = $endTime – $startTime

Display the load time in seconds

Write-Host "Add-in Load Time: $($loadTime.TotalSeconds) seconds"

Release the Outlook COM object

[System.Runtime.Interopservices.Marshal]::ReleaseComObject($outlook) | Out-Null


Cool. Thanks will try tomorrow
