How to install extensions to Inkscape

Asked by Mike RIdgley

Trying to install extensions on Windows 10.... Inkscape ver 0.91
Have two files from GitHub: boxmaker.inx and boxmaker.py
Created two folders ("\share\extensions") in same directory as Inkscape
Copied the two files to the "\extensions" directory.
Open Inkscape -> Extensions but don't see Boxmaker in the list of selectable extensions... ??

Hi Mike,

please follow the instructions here:

or these:
https://inkscape.org/en/download/addons/

and also remove the folders you created that will not be needed.
