I use the xNormal plugin alot while working on assets. converting black and white information into normal maps.  Since i updated photoshop. I dont have a plugins folder anymore and I can't use the plugin.  Everytime I try, it sends me to the app store for plugins and its not in there.  Is there anything I can do? I have tried the chat help but i dont think the message was translating well.

 

I just want to be able to use my old plugin which is a 8BF file format.

Plug-ins need to be located in the Shared Creative Cloud plug-in location for Photoshop to see and load the plug-ins.

Find and install your previous plugins into 

Win: Hard Drive\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC
macOS: Hard Drive/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/[Photoshop version number]/File Formats.

thank you. I have tried this method and it does not work with the plugin.  It seems updating photoshop has made my plugin pointless.
