Neox-Storm Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I have downloaded the Plugin. (Shape3D) Everytime i drag it into the Effects folder i get the Following error message. Cannot move Shape3D:Access is denied.Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use. I have no Idea what this means. Would anyone mind helping me out?

Myrddin Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 ...but there is no effects folder or plug in folder...If you do not have an Effects folder in the correct location (default: C:\Program Files\Paint.NET), then reinstall Paint.NET as that should likely rectify this problem.As for the plugins not working, well, if they're not in your Effects folder, they won't work. You cannot simply double-click the extracted DLL file and hey-presto, or drag-and-drop the file directly into Paint.NET (wouldn't we all like that, though?), you have to move the file into said mentioned folder. Once you have your folder reinstated, we'll see where to go from there.

LFC4EVER Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Should look like this if you're using Windows XP: Well, similar anyway and that was in tile view, but the icon should be similar.

Myrddin Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I know the issue has been sorted, but as far as the changed icon for the DLL goes, the association for the file might have been changed. The icon changed to mirror the application it will be opened by, it won't modify the file (shouldn't, I mean shouldn't change). It's a bit like an image, you can opt for the file to be associated with Windows Photo Gallery, but you can still use it with Paint.NET.
