Upgrade to Inventor 2023 Add-In no longer in the Add-In Manager

We have a custom Add-In that we've used for many years flawlessly, and now I'm working on Upgrading to 2023 and this Add-In no longer shows up in the Add-In Manager.  I turn on Hidden Members and still not there.  Attempted on several PCs and same results.  Unisntalled and reinstalled and still doesn't show up.  Did something change in IV2023 that would prevent this from installing?  It works in IV2021 on each PC.

 

See the screen shot of what the Add-In Mgr. shows me in IV2021TimeStamp Add-In.png

 

Thanks Much!

Our custom addin is located in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins\

Not sure if that would make a difference.

Also, check your *.addin file to see if there isn't a restriction on which version is supported.

(my .addin file only has a line for "SupportedSoftwareVersionGreaterThan")

Hi! Another possibility the add-in may need to be recompiled to run with 2023. There is no guarantee an old add-in will run on newer releases. It depends on how it was built.

Many thanks!
