Why have I lost plugins?

[phebas]

I have the 2.51 version running under Vista Enterprise SP1. I have lost a number of plugins:
1. Only the Encrypt archive of the Encrypt/decrypt plug-in is showing

2. The Eroiica Viewer is also greyed out

3. As is the Zip plug-in.

All these were working last time I use salamander 2.51 - what's happened?

Had you done something with Salamander or your system before the plugins disappeared? Installed a program, shut down the system improperly, had a virus infection?

Could you please send us a listing of your Salamander plugins directory? Paste the following command (the green text) to your command line and then attach the created as-list.txt file to your post.

Code: Select all

dir /s /b "%ProgramFiles%\Altap Salamander 2.5\plugins" > as-list.txt

The command should work if you installed Salamander to the default location.

Your plugins configuration would be useful as well, use the following command to export it to as-reg.txt file.

Code: Select all

reg export "HKCU\Software\Altap\Altap Salamander 2.51\Plugins" as-reg.txt

here are the two text files you requested

1. Only the Encrypt archive of the Encrypt/decrypt plug-in is showing

2. The Eroiica Viewer is also greyed out

3. As is the Zip plug-in.

What exactly do you mean by greyed out? Could you post a screenshot?

I mean, in my Plugins menu, items under Eroiica Viewer and ZIP are also greyed out, but that doesn't mean that they're not working. I can still pack using ZIP and view using Eroiica.

The only thing I could find is the presence of plugins\plugins.ver. However, I have two installations of AS; there is a plugins.ver file in v2.5, but there isn't one in v2.51.

If the plugins aren't working at all, try to reinstall them (in Plugins Manager in Plugins menu) or let Salamander auto-reinstall all plugins for you. For the latter, exit all instances of Salamander and run these commands:

Code: Select all

reg delete "HKCU\Software\Altap\Altap Salamander 2.51\Version" /f
reg delete "HKCU\Software\Altap\Altap Salamander 2.51\Plugins Order" /f
reg delete "HKCU\Software\Altap\Altap Salamander 2.51\Plugins" /f
