HOW TO INSTALL PLUGINS/General Plugin Troubleshooting Thread

[BoltBait 2,601]

Check this page: http://boltbait.googlepages.com/install

It will tell you how to click the "Unblock" button.

That's probably the problem.

what is code lab and where to download it?

what is BDN??

[barkbark00 3]

Do you mean PDN...Paint(Dot)NET

[Ghost_ARCHER 0]

Ok, I get it, thanks.

Nowadays ppl get lazier:) I googled it for a while.

Or we should use P.N, which makes more sense for me

[MadJik 963]

Code lab is sticked in the plugins forum... easy to find out !

To do this I have to hold Shift.

It's not laziness, it's efficiency

I can`t find pdn in program files...only in programs and if i paste the .dll in Effects i can`t use the effect....

Can someone help me?

[Bob 4]

Start > Run (Ausfürhen) and type %PROGRAMFILES%

The Paint.NET folder will be there... if you installed it there.

You can also right-click > Properties on a Paint.NET shortcut (in your desktop or in the Start menu) to see where it's located.

Double click on the zip file and then extract the dll to your Paint.Net/Effects folder.

i cannot copy the .dll files into the Effects folder - it says i don't have permission to put them there

Be sure to login to your administrator account before installing plugins. (or an account with admin privileges)

Limited accounts can not install plugins.

i have all the admin privileges (i'm the only user on this computer) - pdn has never let me access the effects folder

(it has it marked as read only and i can't change that either)

PDN also must be closed. Ive done that wayyyy too many times...

If you can't change the folder's read-only property, you probably aren't an admin on the box OR you don't have ownership of the folder.

i finally figured it out - simple file sharing was enabled so i couldn't get to the security tab to give myself the option to give me the preference to make it non read only
