To be found, the plugin must be located in a folder with the same name as the plugin name. For example ...\plugins\MyPlugin\MyPlugin.dll.

If this does not work for you, please let us know your debug information, which you can find in the ? menu, as well as the full path where your plugin is located.

C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\Demo\NppPluginDemo.dll

You need to rename the directory under plugins like C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\NppPluginDemo\NppPluginDemo.dll

or rename the plugin.dll to demo.dll like C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\Demo\demo.dll
