      I have used the SkechUcation Plug-ins Manager for a long time, and it has, for the most part, worked flawlessly.

      I have my plug-ins separated into different folders by the creator.

      I use the 'Additional Folders for Plugins' to load up each folder when I open SU.

      It used to be that when I opened the SkechUcation Plug-ins Manager, I could see the different folders from the drop-down list and I could turn them on/ off as necessary.

      The drop-down list no longer works it only shows the original SU folder - I've tried reinstalling/restarting etc.

      Before I go through and rename ALL the rb! to rb is there a pref file that needs to be deleted that might make it work?

      Any pointers are appreciated.

      ![The drop down only shows the main SU plugins folder.

      Not all the different folders.](/uploads/imported_attachments/AV6x_Screenshot2022-10-12173847.png "The drop down only shows the main SU plugins folder.

        If you had registered your alternative Plugins folders [by using Fredo's tool = which I suspect is the issue...] then they appear in the list you showed, but you do need to use the down-arrow on the top-bar listing the current Plugin folder [defaulted to your standard folder] - the drop- down list them allows you to access any Plugins in the alternative folder you select...

          Tig,

          Thanks for taking the time to reply (love your work BTW)

          It used to work perfectly and as you say, click the drop-down, giving me a list of the folders loaded up.

          I had my plug-in on G:drive but moved to my local πŸ˜„ drive as Google was missing files when syncing.

          I've just moved back to G: and now it works.

          There is something it doesn't like or doesn't have permission to look at folders on πŸ˜„ drive.

          Odd.

          We carry on!

          Cheers,
