Problems installing Image Processor Pro in Bridge (Win 11)

[Imaginerie]

Hello!
I have an issue installing Image processor Pro on Bridge on a PC (I managed to install it for Photoshop),
Basically I wondered if anyone knew where to put
photoshop_ximage_processor_pro.jsx
as I got conficting advice
either in the common files

Which doesn't make much sense since I am not using the x86 file forder for anything (That's the "official doc advice")

Or placing in in the C:/user/appdata/roaming/.../startup scripts like I saw elsewhere

(basically the folder that opens when you show the start up scripts folder in the preferences)

Anyhow, neither of those options work for me, the Image processor pro doesn't appear in the tools>photoshop list

I remember always having a hard time installing this since the extention installer had disapeared (why, oh why?)

Any help will be graciously received,

Thanks!

For whatever reason the photoshop_ximage_processor_pro.jsx doesn't put the Image Processor Pro into the Tools>Photoshop menu in newer Bridge versions.

Since you already installed the Image Processor Pro for use in Photoshop, i would download the DR BROWNS SERVICES INSTALLER under CS6/CC Adobe Photoshop Panels & Actions from here:

https://russellbrown.com/scripts.html

Then unzip the Services_Installer_2.3.1.zip, go into the Manual_Installation folder and copy the Dr Brown Services.jsx

to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CC\Adobe Bridge 2024

Now in Bridge 2024 go to Tools>Dr Brown's Services 2.3.1 and you should see Image Processor Pro listed.

Thank you, I have downloaded it.
However, it's weird because I used the "revised version" from source forge (This is the one everyone pointed me too)
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ps-scripts/files/Image%20Processor%20Pro/v3_2%20betas/
In addition, there is no "bridge 2024" folder in the path you mentionned. (there is one in ...\program files\ common files... though)

It's a freshly installed brand new computer.

I took the leap and installed it in the \program file\ common files... instead of \program file X86\ common file
Alongside the installer and I got it!
However, when I launch it nothing happens (it opens photoshop and then nothing)
So I will start the whole install again, using the files from DrBrown's website instead..

I'll report here...

In C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CC

make a Adobe Bridge 2024 folder and put the Dr Brown Services.jsx in that folder.

Thanks!
So does that mean I have to put BOTH the installer and the photoshop_ximage_processor_pro files in that newly created folder?
Because, with just the installer it doesn't work. (having put the photoshop_ximage_processor_pro file in the photoshop folder of the above path, instead of the Bridge one, as per the official instructions), neither it does with putting both files in there to be honest.

The DrBrown's folder shows in the tools, with 4 tools in there, but the tool isn't doing anything when I select images and run it.
The one situated in Photoshop (in automate) works perfectly, so I have a back up plan while I try to find some time.

I must admit I haven't had the time to uninstall everything to reinstall it as per DrBrown's website.

It is working now, for some reason.

I tested it again before deciding to uninstall what I've already done, and it was working... Go figure!

Thanks Jeff!
