Hi all ; I installed UV-packer the proper way, it's found under addons community, all good but I have to install the program Exe file. in the same place, can't find that place. Heck I can't find the file community folder :) (In order to use the packing functionality the UV-Packer for Blender executable must be placed into the same directory the addon is installed into.)

Hi,

the installed addons (folders or single scripts) should actually be found under: C:/ Users/ [username]/ AppData/ Roaming/ Blender Foundation/ Blender/ [Blender-version]/ scripts/ addons/ ..

As with all addons associated with Blender, you can find the install location by clicking on the arrow next to the addon checkbox in Edit > Preferences > Add-ons. This will open a detailed information panel about that add-on. You should see the word “File:” followed by a local path to the script on your machine. Put the program into the same directory.

MaNae; yes that was correct easy-peasy. Also, a whole lot of blend files and some zip files are not associated with Blender at all. LuxXeon; done thank You all goofygrape
