    Hello

    Today I installed ST v2.1 I changed also my Windows from 7 x64 to 10x64. I saw that I can't update or install any plugin. When I drag zip file over the updater window it is inactive. There is crossed circle instead of cursor. What can I do to update as earlier?

    You can't run the Plugin Updater as Admin or it disables the drag and drop feature. (it's a .net thing.) ;)
