I am trying to find how to remove an Excel Add-in that is installed from the Add-ins menu or the MS AppSource site.
Here I am using ChatGPT for Excel as an example. I just click Add and it is installed and working. However how to I remove it.
The add-in does not show up in any of the add-in screens or in Add or remove programs or any other place I could find.
I did find that with the recent update for Excel 365, I can right click on the Add-in in the ribbon and select Remove Add-in.
However, such an option does not exist in even slightly old 365 builds. Most of my colleagues do not have the same version I do and cannot find a way to remove this or other add-ins they tried.
How can I find an remove any of the newer style Add-ins from any version of 365?

Is the Mac in a corporate/organization environment? If so, installing & removing add-ins may be prohibited by the IT admins.
Another straw to grab at: does the user account signed in on the Mac have admin privileges?
Add-ins>More add-ins>My add-ins>Click 3 dots>Remove.
Unfortunately that method also does not work for the other versions. There is also no inactivate options and no remove option. I could not find any of these add-ins in the advanced add-in or com add-in or any of the other menus. Next time I have a chance I will grab the exact version and build from the older version and post it here.

This does work for me in the newer version. However, when I tried it on a system with an older Excel, I could see My add-ins, and the the add-in, but there was no 3 dots to press and Remove.
For older version, this is still Excel 365, but on the slow stable install path or whatever it is called.
