Hi @LLcoolNJ, thank you for your PR, currently I cannot test the plugin on Windows, are you aware of any other issue on this OS? As far as I know the autodetection of the executable is not working but I have some ideas on how to fix it... would you be available to test some dev builds?

[LLcoolNJ]

Hi @leinardi , I have tested it on windows. It is working fine. I have not faced any issue in it. Sure, I can test dev builds for autodetection.

Hi @LLcoolNJ, I have just released a new version that includes your PR and my fix for the auto-detection on Windows, if you have time could you give it a try and let me know if everything is fine?
