How to diagnose why an Add-in in VS 2005 fails to load

[Joginder]

I have developed an Add-In for VS2005 in Basic. It works fine on a couple of
machines but fails witht the following error on one:

----Start of Message
There was a problem loading the Add-in file
'C:\Documents and Settings\Bob\Application
Data\Microsoft\MSEnvShared\Addins\VSNETcodePrint20 05 - To Deploy.AddIn'."

Would you like to remove this Add-in file?

If you choose yes, the file will be renamed and no Add-ins will be loaded
from it.

----End of message

How can I find out what is the cause of the failure?

Are you sure the add-ins were compiled against the same version of Visual
Studio/.NET Framework?
