Installing and Uninstalling the Microsoft Word Plug-in

from Mendeley
The first time you open your Mendeley desktop, you'll be prompted to log in. After you log
in, you'll see a pop up box that gives you the option to install the Citation Plug-in for
Microsoft Word. This will allow you to use your Mendeley library to create citations and
bibliographies in Microsoft Word. For best results, be sure to close out of Microsoft Word
before installing. Click Install.
After the Citation Plug-in is installed, click close.
If you need to uninstall or reinstall the Microsoft Word plug-in for citations, you can go to
the Tools menu and select either 'Uninstall MS Word Plugin' or 'Reinstall MS Word Plug-
in'. Mendeley will automatically toggle between the two options depending on whether or
not the Plug-in is installed.
