IrfanView plugin stopped working siuddenly
Puzzled to find that a function of IrfanView I use many times a day is
not working this morning. Hitting F12 should pop-up a frequently used tool window. I now get the error message: Can't load Plugln: "PAlNT.DLL" ! Please install or update Pluglns from IrfanView homepage! Re-installing (several times) made no difference. Nor a fresh download of irfanview_plugins_444_setup.exe Looking in C:\Program Files (x86)\IrfanView\Plugins I was also a bit surprised to find that Paint.dll was not present. But nor was it in my nightly or weekly backup of that folder. Which implies that perhaps it's not *supposed* to be present - adding to the puzzle. It *is* present in the 64-bit IrfanView version, and works properly. I followed a recommendation to use the 32-bit version because more plug-ins are supported! Anyone know what might be going on here please? Terry, East Grinstead, UK |

Anyone know what might be going on here please? Terry, East Grinstead, UK If the 64-bit works, use it. Just checked my (rather older) IrfanView 32 on a 32-bit Win-10 and PAINT.DLL is listed as a plug-in. Perhaps if you have both 32- and 64-bit installed the program is trying to use the wrong version? By the way, I install to C:\Tools\ rather than the more protected Program Files tree(s), but I wouldn't recommend that for a shared PC. -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |

I've not used Irfanview for a long time but, in view of your comment, I went here http://www.irfanview.com/64bit.htm and installed same on my laptop (which is currently running Windows 10) without difficulty or problem. Here's a duck which I've cut from the image in my recent post of Tixall 'wide' - Message-ID: - using Irfanview:- https://www.dropbox.com/s/pgj6h4ei25...ll%29.jpg?dl=0 Is there any particular test you'd like me to carry out on your behalf? I'm more than willing to help if I can! -- Regards, David B. |

IrfanView works well here on Windows-10, both 32-bit and 64-bit. Perhaps the OP might tell us which plug-in stopped working? -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |

IrfanView works well here on Windows-10, both 32-bit and 64-bit. that must be a new definition of 'works well'. irfanview is and always has been garbage. even their web site is a joke. a *fixed* 800 pixel wide site? in 2017? |
