BI Publisher Desktop install missing Word Add In

user10731465Dec 3 2019 — edited Jan 17 2022

I installed BI Publisher Desktop on my PC but while trying to get the Add In to show up in the Word Ribbon I inadvertently removed the BI Publisher entry from the COMS Add In page within Word. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the desktop a couple of times but cannot get the BI Publisher Add-in to show up again under Word Options > Add-ins > COM Add-ins so that I can enable it. Start > Oracle BI Publisher Desktop > Enable or Disable Template Builder doesn't help, nor does Start > Oracle BI Publisher Desktop > Set Template Builder Language. I have also uninstalled & reinstalled Java, that hasn't solved the problem.

Here is what Word > Options > Add-ins > COM Add-ins looks like currently with Java & the BIP Desktop reinstalled:

I've searched through various files on the support website but none seems to address this particular issue.
