#8 Cannot Load Plugin

[Jeffrey Sullivan]

Hello. I am using the compare plugin version 1.5.6.2. Every time I open Notepad++ I get an error telling me "Cannot load 32 bit plugin." I have attached a screenshot of the error I get.
I downloaded the plugin from this page: [https://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-compare/
What seems to be the problem and how can I fix it. I am running Windows 10.
Thank you.

Version 64bits : "Note that the most of plugins (including Plugin Manager) are not yet available in x64"

So please dl veersion 32b if you want to use most plugins....

The newest ComparePlugin version (2.0.0) has 64 bit version.
It is also very enhanced and stable.

THANK YOU!!! so much for this information. I don't know why the info isn't "with" the actual plugin...geesh. HUGE HELP! (come on, damn near everyone is on 64bit now, even phones quite often, who even uses 32bit anymore???) I LOVE YOU!
