I am trying to install a Notepad++ plugin from Plugins -> Plugin Manager, but my office firewall is restricting its download. Is there any alternate way to download plugin offline?

Here are the steps that worked for me:

  1. Download the plugin and extract the plugin dll file.
  2. Place the plugin.dll file under plugin folder of notepad++ installation. For me it was : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins
  3. Go to Notepad++ then : Settings -> Import -> Import plugin (import the plugin).
  4. Notepad++ will show the restart message / Sometimes it may not show it.
  5. Restart the notepad++.
  6. Should see new plugin under the Plugins menu. ALL DONE!!
