nIn Installer project there is a registry key fornadd in which has manifest entry. MSDNnDocumentation says that manifest values should benset to – [TARGETDIR]YourAddIn.vsto|vstolocal , now when this is changed to filenpath like file:/// [TARGETDIR]YourAddIn.vsto|vstolocal andnreinstalling add in I got everything working fine.

nNote : This worked for me and there is nonguarantee that will work in each scenario , also be careful while modifyingnregistry entries.
