Plugins aren't installable and don't appear in the menus
Hi Emmanuel,

I have a question about the plugins especially the RotateHome and the AdvancedEditing plugins.
I downloaded them both, extracted and double clicked them. After that Sweet Home 3D started automatically but the plugins aren't shown in the edit or the plan menu. I looked under \users\user\AppData\Roaming but there hasn't been created a folder named "eTeks" or "eTeks\Sweet Home 3D\plugins".
I tried to create this path by myself under "\Roaming" and copied the plugins to the new created plugins folder to get the exact path which is mentioned in the installation guide. But after starting Sweet Home 3D (by double clicking the plugins or via the Windows applications menu) again, the plugins don't appear.

Have you any idea?

Thank you very much in advance!

What happens when you double-click on the sh3p plug-in files? Does the program confirms that it installed them?

Re: Plugins aren't installable and don't appear in the menus
No, after double-clicking on the plugins Sweet Home 3D just starts without any message or popup confirming the installation.
That's strange, even when creating the path by myself and copying the plugins to the folder, they don't appear in the menus.
I also tried the installation with my antivirus program being disabled, but this doesn't make a difference.
My system: Windows 8.1
