emily1238 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) Hi, I've tried uninstalling paint.net and reinstalling it, I've tried moving the plugins from the paint.net/effects folder to directly underneath the paint.net folder, I've tried unblocking the effect in the properties/permissions tab, tried everything. The plugins don't show up under the adjustments or effects menus in paint.net. I'm running win 8. I do notice that I have a 'staging' folder now that I'm not sure I had before I uninstalled and reinstalled, the 'staging' folder is lit up in blue color and files inside that folder are blue as well. Any ideas? Found the fix, I uninstalled, then searched for all instances of paint.net and paintdotnet and removed them. Then I reinstalled. Then I copied the effects i'd already downloaded into the effects folder found at this location "C:\Program Files\PaintDotNet.exe". When I opened paint.net there the plugins were! joy :0) Edited November 23, 2013 by emily1238 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 For future reference, what probably happened is you accidentally copied PaintDotNet.Effects.dll into the Effects folder.
