Hi @avinashlahel, I couldn't get this working with my version of Outlook:
Microsoft® Outlook® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2506 Build 16.0.18925.20076) 64-bit
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.26100.4652]

I am getting error:

Your "solution" doesn't actually solve the issue, and (in a way) makes it worse. Building/installing dependencies in the workflow and not having them be static in the repository is something that you should be doing. Anyways, as far as the actual issue is concerned, the problem is that your plugin is packaging a pyd file that isn't compatible with all windows machines.

Unfortunately the only solution that I've found is to have the code check to see if the file is valid at the very start of the plugin's life, and if not, force reinstall the dependency using a temp pip instance to ensure the proper pyd file. Here is an example of an implementation of this: https://github.com/cibere/flogin/blob/master/flogin/pip.py
