Problem
When navigating to the modules panel, my module is not appearing in the list
Solution
This typically happens if you don't have the correct key in the WinGate\Packages registry key for your plugin. The Using the WinGate Module Wizard will add this key for you but only if Visual Studio was run with administrative privileges. To verify this is the issue, check the key HKLM\Software\Qbik Software\WinGate\Packages (Or HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Qbik Software\WinGate\Packages on 64 bit OSes) and look for the UUID of your module in the subkeys.
Perform these steps to register your package
- Add a key {UUIDOFPACKAGE} under appropriate key (as above) in the registry. The package UUID can be retrieved from your plugin manifest file under the package node, id attribute.
- Add a REG_SZ value under this key with the name Manifest and value that contains the full path to the manifest file for your plugin. e.g. c:\myplugins\pluginname\pluginname.manifest
