Description
This can be relevant for users which have internet issues, or for some other reason have a plugin manager that isn't working correctly.
The gist is:
- Make
Pluginsfolder in OTD's appdata - Make dedicated folder for the plugin - same name as the zip is suggested
- Put all relevant dll files into the folder
Example final application directory structure:
/OTD-appdata/settings.json
/OTD-appdata/Plugins/MyPlugin/MyPlugin.dll
/OTD-appdata/Plugins/MyPlugin/SomeDependency.dll
The appdata location is documented at https://opentabletdriver.net/Wiki/FAQ/General#appdata

Research direction
Start with the FAQ/General page linked in the issue and locate the existing appdata documentation. Add a manual plugin installation section covering the Plugins folder, a dedicated plugin folder, DLL dependencies, and the example directory structure. Done means users without a working plugin manager can follow the instructions to install a plugin.
