      Installed the plugin through the plugin manager. Plugin installed normal!
      How do I put icons in “Cotext Menu”, “Toolbar” and in “Menu”?

      Best regards!

        As far as I know you have to modify the SourcePath in ...\plugins\Config\MenuIcons.ini, means you have to add an additional \MenuIcons folder.
        For me, for example, this looks like this
        SourcePath=D:\...\plugins\MenuIcons\MenuIcons

          you mentioned plugin manager, does that mean you are using a npp version <= 7.5.9? If so, ignore what I’ve said. If you use recent version, then, afaik, SourcePath needs to be modified.
          But you have executed Generate list... form MenuIcons option menu, haven’t you?

            Thanx for your reply!

            No! I have “Notepad++ V7.8.1 (64-bit)” installed.
            My path is “C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\MenuIcons\MenuIcons”
            Please look my screencast.

                    My path is “C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\MenuIcons\MenuIcons”

                    but is this also set in MenuIcons.ini?

                      I didn’t have a .ini file in my Config folder. I created it with the parameters:

                      [Options]
                      IconNameMode=2
                      IconFolderMode=2
                      IconSize=16
                      FileIcons=1
                      WindowIcons=1
                      SourcePath=$PDIR$\MenuIcons\MenuIcons
                      

                      Also used this Path:

                      C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\MenuIcons\MenuIcons
                      

                      Not working! ☹️

                        I didn’t have a .ini …

                        I just tried it with a fresh 7.8.1 portable version.
                        Used plugin admin to install the plugin
                        MenuIcons.ini was there.
                        Had to edit this file using a different editor as it was reset on npp exit, but once edited with a different editor it worked.

                          do you know sysinternals procmon?
                          Maybe give it a try to see where the plugin is looking for the MenuIcons.ini.

                            Thanx, with procmon i find that .ini file was in another place:

                            C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins\config\
                            

                            I also have an IDE installed in Russian language. In order for the icons to work, I need to translate the files in the folder as well:

                            C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\MenuIcons\MenuIcons\
                            

                            alt text

                            For example:
                            Menu > Edit > Copy
                            Menu > Edit > Paste

                            Translate to:
                            Menu > Правка > Копировать
                            Menu > Правка > Вставить

                            alt text
