- Run it. On Windows: open the PluginInstaller folder and run the `.exe` file inside.
The app now re-links its internal file paths. If it hasn’t been run before on this computer, it prompts you to register a new account or import existing license info (see below).
The app is now installed.
Creating & Registering Your Account (One-Time)
- Launch PluginInstaller.
- Enter your name, email, and a strong unlock code.

– Write your unlock code down or save it in a password manager. It cannot be recovered if lost.
– If this is a private, secure computer, make sure the Save Unlock Code checkbox is ticked. - Click Continue
- Check your email for a message from Tightener Registry and click the confirmation link.
Using more than one computer? Don’t create a second account. Instead, on your first machine click Export License Info, then on the other computer launch PluginInstaller and click Import License Info.
