Can't seem to install on Mac AE CC 2017. Get this error on startup.

Am I putting it in the wrong folder?

That seems to be the correct folder...

What version of OSX might you have? Do you have the specific version of your After Effects? (ex: 14.0, 14.1, 14.2)

I have OS Sierra 10.2.15 and AE CC 2017 14.2 according to the splash screen. Here's my plug-in folder layout.

It doesn't seem to detect that the .plugin file is an after effects plugin either.. Are you certain that it is properly extracted from the .zip archive? Also are you certain that your version is not actually "10.12.15"?

I will have to set up my virtual OSX on my new system so it might take some time to recreate this issue on my end unfortunately;;;

I worked it out, Mac automatically renames the .plugin.zip to .plugin if you don't read the prompts so it had been trying to use the unextracted zip which was named .plugin. Might be worth mentioning on the download page?

For sure! Windows has something similar in which it would hide the extension of a file and would cause all sorts of problems and confusions at times. Adding to the download page!
