Check if add-in is installed?

With

Code: Select all

addin
and

Code: Select all

deleteaddin
I can add and delete add-ins. But it would be nice to programmatically check if a particular add-in is installed. Is there someway to do it?

Unfortunately, there really isn't a good way to do this.

It would be very helpful if there was
  1. some way to check if a specific addin is installed,
  2. a "noerr" option to deleteaddin, and
  3. someway list all installed addins.
At my job we use a lot of add-ins. Sometimes they get removed and we have been less than disciplined in removing them. Utility functions such as the ones I listed would make the management of said addins much, much easier.
