    Hi Everyone, 

    I have recently started using Inkscape on a new laptop (having previously used the tool with the inkstitch extension on another computer with no issues)

     

    On this new laptop, I was able to download the Inkscape app from the Microsoft Store. On initial attempt it did not create my system directories but this seemed to correct itself after reinstalling it. 

     

    I extracted the Inkstitch zip into the extensions folder and can see the menu within Inkscape extensions but when clicking on the Params option, nothing happens. I am not sure what the issue is , there is no error, it just does not open. 

     

    Can anyone help me out incase I am missing a step. 

     

    Thanks

    I am pleased that Inkscape is available on the Microsoft app store. However, it seems that initially you experienced an install problem ? 

    You mention being able to extract a zip file - so I assume you are comfortable with navigating folders.

    If you do not have any critical preferences you have saved, such as shortcuts or other extensions I would recommend:

    Uninstalling Inkscape.

    Navigate to: 

    C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\inkscape

    then delete the inkscape folder.

    Then go to: 

    https://inkscape.org/release/1.1.1/windows/

    If you are using Windows 7 or higher, you want the 64 bit version.

    Install that ( make sure you choose 'add Inkscape to path' checkbox )

    Launch Inkscape once, then File>Quit.

    Then install Inkstitch again.
