Uninstalled fx box due to a digital signature not recognized in photoshop 2025

Redownloaded ans was presented with,

.jsx installation file reports an error :

Script Alert

Something went wrong!

Installation failed: Message: undefined is not an object

File: /c/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop

2025/Presets/Scripts/fx_box-installer.jsx

Line: 1

Error Name: TypeError

Error Number: 21 [fx_box-installer.jsx]

anonymous([Error:TypeError: undefined is not an object])

Please contact http://the-orange-box.com, thank you.

After 2 days of failed attempted fixes I took a chance and dowloaded PS 2021. I initiated the jsx instalation file and it worked perfectly and already had all my FX Box plug ins populated in the panel. Now when I need it I open PS 2021 to work on my image. Not even close to ideal but for now its a workaround.

The way I understand it, FX box is merely a host for add ons such as Real Paint FX. I bypassed the FX box host and loaded Real Paint FX as a Photoshop script in the latest version of PS. It seems to be working as it should now just running the script directly from photoshop.

How are you enabling the script? I'm having trouble getting it to do anything to my photo. Thanks..

This scripts file is where I copied the “ Real-Paint-FX.jsx “ file to.
I restarted photoshop and it was in the “File” drop down menu under “Scripts “
I clicked on it an it did it’s job.

Hi, I had the same problem, I use Windows 11, I managed to get it to work as follows:
I copied and pasted these files like this:

• Real-Paint-FX.jsx and Animation-RealPaintFX.jsx into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2025\Presets\Scripts
• Animation - Real Paint FX.atn in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2025\Presets\Actions
• Real Paint FX Patterns.pat in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2025\Presets\Patterns
• Real Paint FX Tools.tpl in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2025\Presets\Tools

If you have the beta version follow the same path but from the corresponding folder.
I ran it in Photoshop from File/Scrips/Real-Paint-FX.
What I couldn't do is to install the fx_box-installer.jsx but it was not necessary to run the pluggin correctly.

I hope it works for you too
