Loading plugins to PaintShop Pro

No matter what I do, I can't get PaintShop Pro to load plugins. I followed the provided info on Corel's website and on sites I googled. I have Topaz BW Effects in my program files and I see the little blue spinning circle after clicking OK on the plugins process. But it isn't in PSP when I open a file. Can someone please give me a simple step-by-step process, indicating where there might be a problem. Loading a plugin to Photoshop is so simple.

Thanks,
Deb

Here are the instructions. The following is from HELP.

File -> Preferences -> File Locations -> Plug-ins

Use check box to enable plugins and then add the directories for the plugins. Topaz plugins should be in a directory called Topaz labs. This directory will be under programs select both 32 bit and 64 bit versions if you have a 64 bit machine.

For some reason, I have 2 Topaz plugins in my Programs folder but they are not inside a Topaz Labs folder. Could that be the problem?

I think this video (5 min) will answer the question on file location.

Does "got it now" mean you got it installed? Did you just download BW effects? In your download folder you should see asbweffects. Click on this application and it will install in the correct programs folder either programs files or programs files (x86). After opening PSP click on "file", scroll down to preferences, file locations and find this screen.

Yes, I got it installed - plus a couple other Topaz plugins that I'm going to play with.

Thanks,
