Problem with plugin downloads


chaosAD

Recommended Posts

I have a problem extracting plugins from the zip folder to one of the folders in the paint.net directory it keeps prompting me for a password I have read the read me file and does not state anything about passwords. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong.

Love Paint.net btw 8)

Which plugin are you having trouble with?

I deleted the original Effects folder and created a new one that enabled me to extract the plugins.I currently have 7 plugins inside the folder only one works that is the shadoweffects.dll file the other files that don't work are

Cutouteffect.dll

Photoflood.dll

Vandermotten.dll

Huesatfilter.dll

oblique.dll

Water.dll

You see the dll files in there, but they don't show up in the menu? Is that right?

Yes that is correct

OK, try this:

In windows explorer, right-click on a dll file that isn't working and choose Properties from the menu that shows up.

In the General tab of the properties box, look near the bottom for an "Unlock" button. Click it.

Click OK to close the properties box.

Repeat this for each dll that isn't working.

Doesn't work I uninstalled the program, then tried reinstalling it again but it gives me an error half way through the installation
