Video Tutorial for MarkdownViewer++

As I was looking for the ways to preview the markdown in Notepad++, I could not find helpful video tutorial on how to Install and Use MarkdownViewer++ in Notepad++.

I even found a post (Issue #130) that was asking for the same.

So, I have created this Video tutorial on How to Install and Use MarkdownViewer++ plugin in Notepad++.

Hope it is helpful to others who are in the similar boat.

Environment

Appreciate any feedback or review.

Under the plugins folder, create a new folder with the same name as the dll. Place the dll in the folder. Restart npp and it should show up.

The new folder is not 100% the same as the dll file but the same up to the file extension. For example if the plugin you are trying to add is named MarkdownViewerPlusPlus.dll then create a folder in the plugins folder called "MarkdownViewerPlusPlus" and place the MarkdownViewerPlusPlus.dll file in that folder and restart notepadd++ and it should load the plugin. This worked on Windows 10 Notepad++ 8.1.9 and MarkdownViewerPlusPlus.dll x64 version 0.8.2 from https://github.com/nea/MarkdownViewerPlusPlus
