Or
in Windows 2000 the error message looks like this:
This occurs because the “Plugin.dll” file does not get copied to the Windows “System32” folder.
Solutions and Workaround:
There are 2 solutions to fix this error. Follow the steps below.
#1) Manually copy the Photoshop Elements “Plugin.dll” file to the Windows “System32” folder.
1. If you have installed Photoshop Elements 2.0 in the default location, the Elements
“Plugin.dll” file can be found in: “C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2.” Open
“My Computer” and navigate to this folder. If you did not use the default folder, then
navigate to the folder you selected or created for Photoshop Elements 2.
2. Copy the file and then navigate to your Windows “System32” folder. The Windows
“System32” folder can be found in the Windows Operating System folder. Typically it will
be “C:\Windows\System32” or “C:\WinNT\System32.” Then paste a copy of the Plugin.dll
file into the “System32” folder. This will prevent the Plugin.dll error from occurring.
#2) The second way to resolve this error is to upgrade the version of SilverFast. Follow the
download and installation steps outlined below.
