Automatically activate installed plugins

Explorer ,
Oct 07, 2019 Oct 07, 2019

Hi,

 

how can I automatically activate an installed plugin?

Everytime when I install a plugin of mine, the plugin is shown in the Plugin Manager of Lightroom but it is disabled by default.

 

 

Thanks in advance

Regards

If you manually place the plugin in the default folder for plugins, it should be enabled by default. 

 

Windows—C: \ Users \ [your username] \ AppData \ Roaming \ Adobe \ Lightroom \ Modules

Mac—Macintosh HD / Users / [your username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / Lightroom / Modules

I just tested my LR 8.4.1 / Mac OS, and plugins in the Modules subfolder are automatically added to File > Plug-in Manager but are initially disabled.  I don't know of any way to automatically enable them.
