Outlook AddIn : How to show console.log with Outlook Desktop?

I am working on an Outlook AddIn in JavaScript. My functionality works well in Outlook Web but it isn't working in Outlook Desktop.

In Outlook Web I can see my console.log messages in the console of the browser. But I can't figure out how to do this with Outlook Desktop so I can properly debug my Desktop app.

Solution

    1. Open your add-in in Outlook.

    2. Go to and open one of:

      • 32-Bit – C:\Windows\System32\F12\IEChooser.exe
      • 64-Bit – C:\Windows\SysWOW64\F12\IEChooser.exe

    and there is your debugger.
