kngfujm Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I open it, it says I'm "Attempting to open a file type System file". The "effects" folder will also not allow me to open with or drop the plugin into it. Using Windows 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kngfujm Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 I can't extract it. I can even place it in the effects folder and it won't work. The effects from other plugin packs all work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red ochre Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 dpyplugins8.1 is shown in your screenshot as a folder. You need the '.dll' files within that folder to be directly in Effects. You can open folders but NOT the '.dll' files. 1. Double-click the dpyplugins8.1 folder and select all files within. 2. Right click and select 'Cut' from the drop-down list. 3. Select the Effects folder, right click and select 'Paste'. 4. Now when the dpyplugins8.1 folder is selected it should say it is empty - if so, it can be deleted. 5. Restart paint.net and check the new effects are working. Good luck. 1 Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............
