You put them wherever you want. Neither of those paths is standard.

If you want the settings in the addin registration area that would be
\software\microsoft\office\outlook\addins\myaddin. However, depending on
your addin registration the addin might be registered in HKLM, and a user
running the addin might not have permissions to write to HKLM. You could use
HKCU for that at all times if you want.

I generally, if I use the registry at all for settings , would place things
under HKCU\Software\MyCompanyName\AddinName.

Where in the registry should custom settings for an add-ins configurable
values be kept?
office\12.0\outlook\addins\Myaddin
or
office\12.0\outlook\options\Myaddin
or
somewhere else?

thanks
