Hello,

I encountered strange problem. When following code is compiled in Debug it works
ok. However when I compile it in Release. During uninstal VS .net 2003 display
crash warning. What is more no exception is thrown.
BTW addins are removed properly.

Someone has idea what I do wrong.

thanks
Szymek

Some ideas:

1) Try to get the exception message. It seems that you are catching and
silencing the exceptions. Use MessageBoxes.

2) If that fails, try to trim your code until you find the culprit. FOr
example, you are doing 3 things: removing controls from command bar,
removing commandbar and removing commands. Surely only one of the 3 is
causing the problem... so try to isolate which one executing only one in
each test.
