Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for enabling ribbon re-loading through a proxy add-in. A ribbon proxy add-in is loaded that has ribbon customizations for a ribbon of a primary add-in. The primary add-in is also loaded. At a later point in time, the ribbon proxy add-in is unloaded and reloaded, which causes a host application to re-query the ribbon proxy add-in for the ribbon customizations. Since the ribbon proxy add-in points to the ribbon customizations of the primary add-in, the ribbon of the primary add-in is updated as a result.
