Please help me. Getting discouraged and aggravated

Using Winzip to get the files in place isn't working correctly.

I also told you in an earlier reply not to use WinZip to place the f files in folders but to unzip them in whatever folder the zip file exists and to copy them then paste them into the folders they belong in. So why are you still trying to place them in folders with WinZip?

And you never said whether or not you have now installed both the 32bit and 64bit versions of PSP.

So would you please let us know if you have done both of those things? If not, perhaps you should start reading this thread from the top again, carefully.

Getting old plugins to work in PSP can be a problem with Windows 10.
You asked where to put the dll files therefore I am assuming you have all the 10 dll files required?
For 32bit The dll files (all 10) go into C:Windows System folder and also C: Windows/System 32 folder.
For 64 bit they go into C: Windows/SySWow64 - all 10 dll files.
Since I have both 32 and 64 bit I have them in all 3 places and I have been able to get most of mine to work. Hope this helps.

Nitro I would be interested in knowing what the 10 dll files are that you say are necessary.

gagejennifer - Older plugins My Filters Unlimited were made before a 64 bit version of PSP was made and will only work in 32 bit versions of PSP

This is why the installations of PSP from X6 onwards have included both a 32 and 64 bit version.

So you must install both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of PSP.
I think all the filters with .8bf endings will only work in the 32 bit version of PSP.
This includes My Filters Unlimited , Harrys Filters, VM Natural, Andrews Filters and many others.

When I run the 64 bit version of PSP X9 I only see Nik Collection (Analog Efex Pro 2 - Viveza 2)
and Painter (Particleshop)
You will not get all the filters showing in any one version of PSP.

hartpaul .. these are the files - also some of the plugins needed to be patched to enable them to work using fmpatcher.

Interesting. do not have all those filters and yet I have full functionality of the My Filters Unlimited, Andrews filters, VM Natural, Harrys Filters.
As said before I have
msvcrt.dll in the Windows > system 32 and the Windows > SysWOW64 folders
I also have
msvcrt.dll
msvcrt20.dll
msvcrt40.dll
in the Windows > SysWOW64 folder.
So from that I take it that there are only 3 dll filters needed.
Others might also check to see what they have on their systems.

EDIT: for gagejennifer I have successfully added the My Filters Unlimited along with VM Sparkle that she was worried about to all Win 10 editions that I have including the Anniversary update 1607 and the Creators Update 1703. So by following the steps outlined , it can be done and you need not lose those old filters.
