Manual install

If you follow all the Ae instructions and AEUX still isn't showing up in the AE Window>Extensions menu, do a manual install. You didn't do anything wrong, it just happens sometimes wth extensions.

• Change the extension of the AEUX.zxp file to .zip. It might give you a dialog warning about changing the file type but ignore it.
• Unzip this file to get a folder called AEUX
• Navigate to the Adobe extensions folder:
  • Mac: /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions/
  • Win: C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/CEP/extensions/
• Copy this AEUX folder to the /extensions/ folder
• Restart Ae and look for AEUX in the Window>Extensions folder

• Under Link existing plugin, click to open the manifest file
• This panel will close and AEUX will now be available by right-clicking Plugins>Development>AEUX
