QUESTION
I am trying to install compare plugin in notepad++ v7.6.2 32bit
following this tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvEOX6mSbpo
I did exact same steps, except I realized when I tried to place the DLL in the plugins folder, I didn't find a plugins folder!
so I created one myself and placed the DLL. restarted notepad++ and I can't see the compare plugin at all in plugins
I found this thread here
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/17492/plugins-gone/2
apparently, plugins in the new version have to be placed in a subfolder of the plugin name due to organization
so I did that, and still, I can't see the compare plugin
finally, I tried installing from PluginsAdmin (apparently that's what plugin manager is replaced within new notepad++ versions), and it restarts automatically during installation, but i still cannot see compare plugin listed...
what is going on?
Update:
i discovered, thanks to this thread (last post) that based on initial installation selection (which i think i just did default installation whatever options are selected automatically), i found the plugins folder in %APPDATA%
still, placing the dll there didn't help. the plugin won't show up still!
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-Jul-01 at 19:13Finally! I figured out why thanks to this post here:
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/17276/cannot-install-plugins-at-all/11
because my machine is company machine, it appears the proxy must be set
Do this in elevated mode (i.e. open notepad++ as administrator)
after that, from pluginAdmin,
install compare plugin, restarted notepad++, and wala! the plugin is showing up finally!!
