Hi, I use your work for several years. Right now Notepad++ changed the way it manages plugins. Is it possible to fix it? Thanks anyway.

Hi @havilson, unfortunately I don't even have a Windows desktop anymore so fixing it is unlikely! Hopefully someone who does can make a PR

Thanks @DominicTobias for your answer, let's hope someone could help. :)

@havilson Most likely you are just facing the issue described here: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/notepad-7.6-released.html

FOR PLUGIN USERS: to remedy this problem, after the update, you can : Find the name of plugin you want to migrate in %PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Notepad++\plugins\myAwesomePlugin.dll (or %PROGRAMFILES%\Notepad++\plugins\myAwesomePlugin.dll, according the achetecture of your Notepad++). go to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Notepad++\plugins\ to create myAwesomePlugin folder. move the plungin myAwesomePlugin.dll from %PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Notepad++\plugins\ to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Notepad++\plugins\myAwesomePlugin. That’s it. Restart Notepad++ and you get your beloved plugins back.

Is the plugin working again after moving it to the new plugin directory under the subfolder SecurePad?

Added to plugin admin list with https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/nppPluginList/commit/b7d6801aa00187bb431313b0b3ee123f50e3ab2e.

@chcg worked like a charm, should have read it before. Thanks anyway!
