I finally updated to Photoshop 2021 and had some problems installing some Plugins, they were not showing up in Photoshop no matter how many times I installed them.
The 2 Plugins I use that I wanted to install are:
Imagenomic Noiseware
Topaz Clarity
1. Noiseware - To get it to install, When asked for a Host, I had to specifically select the Plugin directory (folder) in Photoshop 2021 instead of just the Photoshop 2021 folder.
So it was in C: > Program Files > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop 2021 > Plugins
Select that in the dialog box, and you will be good to go.
2. Topaz Clarity - I know it got absorbed into Topaz Adjust Ai, but for what I use it for, I really just like the simplicity of the older Clarity setup. This one was a bit trickier to setup.
Install as normal, you are not asked for a Host.
Go to C: > Program Files (x86) > Topaz > Topaz Clarity > Plugins_x64
Select and copy the only file in there: tlclarityps_x64.8bf
Go back to: C: > Program Files > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop 2021 > Plugins
Create a New Folder called Topaz
Paste the tlclarityps_x64.8bf file into it.
Be sure to have had Photoshop 2021 closed, if not close it and then restart it to see the plugins.
I hope this helps someone.
