The Add-In needs to be registered with the system (i.e. using regasm.exe), and also needs to have an entry in the local registry to tell EA to look for it (e.g. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sparx Systems\EAAddins\<Addin Name>]).  If a user does not have rights to modify the registry, it may not be possible to properly install the Add-In.
