In Adobe Illustrator CC2017, on a PC, how can if find out what third party plug-ins are installed? There used to be an option in Illustrator to get information on plug-ins but I can't find it in this version.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Any 3rd party plugin should be placed in the following locations:
1. Windows : C: \ Program files \ Adobe Illustrator (your version number) \ Plug-ins \ Extensions.

2. macOS: Applications\ Adobe Illustrator 2020\Plug-ins

Hope it helps.

 

Regards,

Ashutosh

Hi, I'm trying to install a third party plugin that I desesperately need to do my job (it applies registration marks so my cutter machine can make custom cuts). I already talked with the company who makes this plugin and the only answer I'm getting is that they "urged" people not to upgrade... which is ridicolous since we as customers need to be up to date. Is there any work around to install the old plugin?

 

Thank you,

Fab

In the CC app, go to Illustrator, click the 3 dots and choose Other Versions to install an older one.
