My Outlook add-in works on web, however it doesn't work on Outlook client (Microsoft Outlook for Mac 16.78.3 (23102801)). I've checked the log file and it says:
24.11.23 13:47:25 Unexpected Resource Access to one of your manifest's resources is denied. Check the <Resources> listed in your XML manifest file.
When I try to add the add-in indicating the manifest file it simply doesn't load. And here is my manifest.xml file:
