Hi,

we have developed a plugin that we want to install it for all the rhino instances across the firm. right now we are using a script that copies a folder structured as shown below to  
Program Files\Common Files\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\plug-ins  
and Program Files\Common Files\McNeel\Rhinoceros\7.0\plug-ins

```auto
RhinoPlugin (D8EED4F2-53AF-4318-AC67-6BF336F997F2)/
 ├── 0.0.01/
 │ ├── RhinoPlugin .rhp

```

The issue we are having is that Rhino doesn’t automatically detect and load the plugin, we also are adding the keys to the regiestery.

I would appreciate if you share what would be the best way to go about the deployment or direct me to the topic if this has already been discussed.

Thanks

Hi @ashkan.rdn,

Something you might consider is using Rhino’s [Package Manager](https://www.rhino3d.com/features/package-manager/).
