    I'm using SU8 at work and we have a policy that won't allow me to install or copy a file onto the C:/Programs folder or any folders therein. Thus, I cannot put plugins into my "Plugins" folder. Is there a way to get SU to look for plugins in an alternate location? I can, for instance, add to a new plugins folder in MyDocuments.

    Thanks for your help!

        Another way could be with version 8 (I am not sure how it works in a restricted environment) to zip the plugin then rename the zip extension to rbz and install the plugin from Window > Preferences > Extensions with the button at the bottom.
