Depending on the npp version you use the setup is different.
Can you post your debug info, which is available from the ? menu?. -

7.8
ok, two notes,
first
Local Conf mode : OFFmeans that configuration files and plugins are located and searched in %appdata%\notepad++and second, because this is a newer version you have
to create a folder with the same name as the plugin to make it
work which means you need to have a directory
%appdata%\notepad++\plugins\ComparePlugin\but may I ask you why you don’t use the PluginAdmin to do the installation?

Sir, Thank you for your suggestion. By creating compareplugin Folder it worked.
But How do I use PluginAdmin ? -
From the plugins menu you should have a Plugins Admin item
if you click it a dialog should open and you can check which plugins you want to install. Plugin Admin takes care to download
it and put it into the correct places. -
Thank you Very much. You really saved a lot of time for me.
Can you please help me , where do I get tricks and Tips for Notepad++.
There might so many features available in Notepadd++ but we are using very little out of it , We used to see other friends , how they use notepad++. Like removing Tabs to spaces is one feature available, I found it while someone was doing it.Instead is there a place we can see all help full feature available in Notepad++.
