How can I disable Outlook 2010 addins using Group Policy

Question

I have downloaded and imported the templates to enable me to set a GPO for disabling Outlook  addins, but I am confused about how I disable things like the SharePoint addins (we do not use SharePoint so this is not needed). I have found several
posts saying to do this via a registry change, which I can easily do via GPO, but it does not say how to add keys for the different addins.
Does anyone have details of what I need to add into the registry or have a link to somewhere that gives a list of common ones I can use?

Hi,
>>Does anyone have details of what I need to add into the registry or have a link to somewhere that gives a list of common ones I can use?
After searching around, I think the following article may give us some tips about how to manage application-level add-ins. To disable a specific add-in, we can try to set the value of
LoadBehavior entry to 0 in the add-in's corresponding registry key. The registry key path for a specific add-in is as follows:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\application name\Addins\add-in ID

If this doesn't help, in order to get better help, it's recommended that we ask for suggestions in the following Outlook or SharePoint forums.
