Question Installation problems

I'm having trouble installing AddOns in ESO. I downloaded the Wykkyd Framework, Foundry Tactical Combat, and MiniMap addons, and extracted them to my Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns folder and they won't show up in-game. Attached are two screenshots, one of folder showing where the addons are at, and another showing that they don't show up in-game. I followed the FAQ How to install to the letter and still have this problem. Any help?

It seems that you have extra folder in there - I mean you probably have:

~Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/AddOns/FTC_038a/FoundryTacticalCombat

it should be just:
~Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/AddOns/FoundryTacticalCombat

the same goes for all other addons.

Check the folders of the addons please.
In there there MUST NOT be another folder with the same name.

Example:
Folder's name is "AUI"

In there there shoudl not be another single folder called "AUI" but some more folder names or filenames with the ending .lua or .txt

If you extract the ZIP archives (e.g. AUI.zip) there is a foldername in the ZIP file called "AUI".
Some extraction tools like WinZip or WinRAR will create a folder with the name of the ZIP archive ("AUI") and put the content of the zip archive (the folder AUI) in there.
So you got ...Addons\AUI\AUI\aui.lua in the end.

It should be:
...Addons\AUI\aui.lua

Thx for the fast reply but im afraid thats not the salvation of my problem .
Inside the AddOns\Aui file it looks like this so i guess that is all right ?.

I have tried manually installing the AddOns , i have tried via Minion .
The path and all seems to be right but they just wont show up in game :s

Is it the good folder used ?
I don't think so, because your address bar show "Mijn Documenten" instead of "Documenten"

start from your "Documenten" folder at the left in the tree and move all the stuff here.

Minion has that bug which don't install in the correct folder.

No luck with addons on new Windows 10 install. As you can see I'm 90% sure I have the placement correct, as well as double checking by having minion do it too. But the addon list is completely empty in game. :-( Anyone have any idea's?

NA Server, and there's nothing in my live folder other than the addons folder.

That does help though... When I save a screenshot, it saves to:
C:\Users\sean\OneDrive\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\Screenshots

SOLVED!

Turns out Microsoft OneDrive, despite implying it was backing up the entirety of the folder by having the ESO/live/AddOns, and next level folders had not actually copied the contents of the individual addon folders to the OneDrive tree. So once I actually copied the each addon's folders into ...\OneDrive\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns\... then it worked.

Thanks Ayantir for suggesting the existence of UserSettings.txt which I searched for and found in OneDrive from running the game under Windows 8.1. So now I'm curious, is everyone with Windows 10 running their addons off the cloud?

Choose another Minima addon like Votan's Minima.
The one you've tried seems to be outdated/not working.
