Downloading Office using Click To Run

If you purchase an online version of Office 2010 you can use a new feature called Click To Run. What Click To Run does is place Office in a virtual application space to use while the actual software suite downloads in the background.

The drawback to this is TurningPoint cannot be used in this type of enviroment because it is an Out of Process add-in. Out of Process add-ins are not supported by Office. If you try to use this with TurningPoint, you will recieve a message that states cannot find PowerPoint.exe

Microsoft defines an Out of Process add-in as:
Out-of-process add-ins/applications are stand-alone programs, scripts, or applications that use Office object model APIs to start functionality in the application and integrate with Office. In this case, the out-of-process application drives Office.
