P: Plug-ins not found

Photoshop 2020 is not finding plugins. I have moved them to the new folder as I’ve always done, but this time neither Topaz or Nik is recognised. I’ve tried it on my other computer and it’s the same.

I can't share the link as it needed my licence number, sorry. If you contact them via Nik support they should come back to you quite quickly.

Could you please post the link? I’m curious as to whether you had the same problem that I had - see below:

Just tried Jeffrey Tranberry's solution. The good news - it worked. The not so good news (but not too bad) is that when you clicked to apply the filter, it did not work. However, if you then clicked the top top item on the filter menu (the last filter used) it works. Weird but usable. 
Thx.

Richard - Yes, they emailed me a link to download it again.

Is it a different link than Tranberry's?

Nik support have sent me a new link and it's also working fine.

Just reporting a bug. Old and amazing Nik Collection is not been recognized by new PS 2020. It ́s not listed in the FILTER menu. Reinstalled and nothing. Please fix this! Otherwise will be impossible to use this version. Nik Collection plugin inside PS is extremely important for a photographer! Using W10 64.

That's awesome! I'm glad it worked for you Mary. I've yet to install PS 2020 but I'm just waiting for a bit until some of the bugs get ironed out.

Thanks Rosa. My folders had already migrated there after re-installing from the manufacturer so I re-installed photoshop this morning and that seemed to re-link them. Good to know plug-ins won't be an issue in future versions.
