You can use the Ribbon Designer to add controls to the menu that opens when you click the File tab. When you run the application, controls that you add to the File tab appear a group named Add-ins.

You cannot position controls before or after built-in controls by using the Ribbon designer in Visual Studio. A built-in control is a control that already appears in Backstage view. If you want to position controls before or after built-in controls, you must use a Ribbon XML. For more information about Ribbon (XML), see Ribbon XML.
