Plugin Not Appearing When Placed in Effects Folder

[APShredder]

Hello everyone,

I am in the midst of trying to write another plugin. I am currently trying to debug the plugin, but for some reason the plugin won't show up in Paint.NET. I've checked that the plugin is in the Effects folder and that there are no plugin load errors regarding my plugin. Any other ideas on why this is happening? Thanks in advance.

Which framework version is it targeting? If v4.0, try v3.5 SP1.

I was targeting v4.0 and I tried changing the targeted framework to both v3.5 and v3.5 Client Profile (I don't have an option for v3.5 SP1) but the plugin still isn't showing up in the menu.

Never mind, I figured it out. Turns out there was a plug load error, but for some reason it didn't seem to register with Paint.NET at first.

Hi! I have the same problem,

and no idea what to do.

To test what could be wrong, i have downloaded the codelab plugin source code. (because that plugin was already working in my PDN)

I have build the solution in my visual c#, and moved the new codelab.dll to /effects, and wth? PDN doesnt show the codelab plugin anymore. When I move the old one back there its in the effects menu again.

I have compared the bytesize of the original codelab.dll , and my new rebuilt codelab.dll and it is exactly the same, thats whats realy weird about that x.x

Any ideas? D=

EDIT!!:

K, i have changed solution to .net 3.5 and restarted my computer -> worked!
