SharePoint and Office Integration not working in IE

Question
We have SharePoint 2013 Enterprise, Office Pro Plus, Windows 7, and IE 11.
Connect to Outlook, Export to Excel, Customize Form (InfoPath), and basically all other Office Integration points seem to be failing in IE. Connect to Outlook works correctly in Chrome.
- Minimal Download Strategy is turned off
- SharePoint is in the Intranet Zone
- IE Protected Mode is off
I suspect there is something wrong with our IE Add-ons, or that the upgrade to Office Pro Plus did not work correctly, potentially the Office Uninstaller does not cleanly uninstall Office. Has anyone ran into this issue before?

Solution
The following change fixed this issue for me however removing virtual components functionality could have negative implications to other applications:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\Client\Virtualization
ProcessesUsingVirtualComponents (Multi-String Value)
