One of my skins is not working and somehow this dll file is missing:-
Plugin=Plugins\QuotePlugin.dll
Ive re-installed Rainmeter but still does not work
Where can I download this safely??
I've googled but some websites are 'not safe'
Thanks

Re: Missing QuotePlugin DLL
I think this can't really help, because for backward compatibility reasons, the Plugin=Plugins\QuotePlugin.dll form of the option should also work. I assume instead that the plugins QuotePlugin.dll file has been removed (accidentally?) from the system (however in this case a reinstall should have been add it back).
The location of the file should be C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Plugins\QuotePlugin.dll. Check if it's there

Re: Missing QuotePlugin DLL
Thank you both.
Got it working and correct path was:-
Plugin=Plugins\QuotePlugin.dll
The error was a character error inside the meter section of that code.

Re: Missing QuotePlugin DLL
Might be, however as jsmorely said above, this form of the option, even if does work, is an extremely old form and should not be used. Plugin=QuotePlugin is completely enogh.Space_Crime wrote: ↑April 5th, 2023, 10:20 pm Got it working and correct path was:-

Re: Missing QuotePlugin DLL
You are correct, both type works so I discarded the older form and replaced it with the one suggested: Plugin=QuotePlugin
