Hi, i recently started using a new computer for after effects. Its a PC and i'm used to mac, so i've had a little but of trouble finding everything but i can't seem to find a plugins folder. When i open the after effects folder there's only three options: User presets, User libraries and Video libraries. I've tried watching tutorials and they all have way more folders than i do, and i remember having more on my mac. I've tried searching for folders named plugins and such but i can't find anything near it. Should i reinstall after effects completely or could they be on my computer already? If so where and how can i find it?

I'm not sure if it matters but i'm using the 2019 version!

Correct answer Mylenium

You are just seeing your user document folders. The plug-ins folder is in the actual program folder. Certain folders will be hidden by default on Windows, so you have to read up on how to make them visible and navigate the file structure.
