Here are detailed instructions for uninstalling the LightBox Excel Add-In in two different scenarios:
🧍 Uninstalling for a Single User
This is applicable when the add-in was installed by the user through Excel or via a local installer (not deployed by IT or via admin center).
Option A: Via Excel Interface
- Open Excel. 
- Go to the "Insert" tab on the ribbon. 
- Click "My Add-ins" (or "Add-ins" depending on Excel version). 
- In the Office Add-ins dialog: - Find LightBox Excel Add-In. 
- Click the three-dot menu (···) next to it. 
- Choose "Remove". 
 
Option B: Via Windows Control Panel (if locally installed MSI)
- Open Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features. 
- Locate LightBox Excel Add-In in the list. 
- Right-click and select "Uninstall". 
- Follow the prompts to complete the removal. 
🛡️ Uninstalling for an Admin-Managed Deployment
This applies when the add-in was deployed through Microsoft 365 admin center (Centralized Deployment via Microsoft 365).
Instructions for Microsoft 365 Admins
Requires Microsoft 365 Global Administrator or equivalent privileges.
- Go to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. 
- Navigate to: 
 Settings > Integrated Apps.
- Find the LightBox Excel Add-In in the list. 
- Click on it, then select "Remove App" or "Unassign Users", depending on the deployment scope. 
- Confirm to uninstall it from all targeted users' Office environments. 
Tip: Changes may take up to 24 hours to reflect on user machines.
✅ Verification
After uninstalling:
- Restart Excel. 
- Confirm the LightBox add-in no longer appears under Insert > My Add-ins. 
Let me know if you want a script-based method (e.g., PowerShell or registry edits) for bulk uninstall in enterprise environments.
