[Plugins] Update to Adobe XD 31 uninstalled my plugins

I mean, couldn't the system at least warn us? And it isn't the first time it happens.

Same for me, none of these solutions fixed our problems.

 

I'm using Adobe XD on Windows 10. Yesterday it was working perfectly and today since I had done the update, all my plug-ins already installed were removed, they just disapearred.

 

Since this, every time I'm trying to install plug-in, no matter which one, I have this message : "L'installation du plug-in a échoué. En savoir plus : Centre d'aide".

 

I try to remove all my local temp files, uninstall/install, signout from the Creative Cloud... Nothing is working !
Could you help me please ?


Hi All,

 

It looks like the issue is resolved with the latest update of XD 31.2. Would you mind updating XD to the latest version and share the results with us? 

 

We are here to help.

 

Thanks,

Harshika

Hi,

I've been trying to install plugins in XD but I can't seem to succeed. Whenever I click the install button, the animation wheel endlessly rotates but the plugins never download. How do I resolve this?

 

I've restarted the computer and reinstalled the apps but nothing works.

Hi Paul,

 

Sorry to hear about the trouble. After deleting the file, please reboot your computer and then check. If this doesn't help either, I'd request you to please share system logs through DM by following the steps below:

 

  1. ExManCoreLibLog.YES (create an empty text file with this name) at:

Mac : /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CC/Log/
Win : C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CC\Log\

2. asu.trace (create an empty text file with this name) at:

Mac : /Users/***/Library/Logs
Win : C:\Users***\AppData\Local\Temp

 

Once you created an empty text file, please install plugins and then share: 

  1. Share EMCL.log file at 
    Mac: /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CC/Log/EMCL.log
    Win : C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CC\Log\EMCL.log

  2. Share ACC.log file at 
    Mac : /Users/***/Library/Logs/CreativeCloud/ACC/ACC.log 
    WIn : C:\Users***\AppData\Local\Temp\CreativeCloud\ACC\ACC.log
  3. Share ExMan.db from 
    Mac: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CC/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db
    Win : C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CC\Configuration\DB\ExMan.db

 

Note: Please add the logs files in shared storage and then share the link in DM and add this discussion link as the subject.

 

Regards

Rishabh

I managed to get my extensions back after several days of trying. Closing down Creative Cloud Desktop (CCD) wasn't working. I needed to go to start-up apps and turn it off there, then reboot, otherwise turning it off after it started up didn't allow me to change the .db file name. I'm just putting this out there for other people who are still struggling. (I'm on a Windows 10 machine).

 

TO THE STAFF: When you say add .old 'at the end' I think you should stipulate whether you mean the end of the file name or the end of the extension or whether to replace the extension completely with .old. It probably doesn't matter but it's still not good enough just to say 'at the end'. Secondly, there's also the assumption that everyone knows what CCD means. Please, this is frustrating enough without having to guess what you mean.

Since the last update (27.07.2020) all my plugins are gone and I cannot install them because it shows an error without any error code. I cannot work without the "zeroheight" plugin. Please help!
