I have copied "encoding.x86_64-windows.dll" to my libraries directory("$HOME/.config/lite-xl/libraries/"), also tried copying it to "mypath/lite-xl/data/libraries/", also tried renaming it to "encoding.dll". Windows 11 22621.1105 + Lite XL v2.1.1 + Lite XL Encoding v1.1

Just tested the binaries on windows 11 and it works:

Did you installed the x86_64 version of Lite XL or the x86 version? Lite XL will fail to load the DLL if it was built for a different architecture than what Lite XL was built for.

In any case you have to put encoding.x86_64-windows.dll in C:\Users\[YOUR_USER]\.config\lite-xl\libraries\encoding.dll

and copy the lua plugin on plugins/encodings.lua to C:\Users\[YOUR_USER]\.config\lite-xl\plugins\encodings.lua

Also there is now a package manager that will take care of installing a plugin and its dependencies for you.
