Minion doesn't detect all addons
Hi there,
I'm sorry if this issue was solved before but I have a hard time using the search function in this forum. My Minion keeps detecting the same 4 AddOns (Esohead, Inventory Grid View, Research Assistant and SkyShards) while all the other AddOns I have installed do not show up in the "INSTALLED" Tab. I have cleared my AddOns Directory multiple times and reinstalled my AddOns via Minion but every time I restart the programm, the same 4 AddOns are getting detected while the rest is missing. I already deinstalled Minion a few times, deleted the minion.xml and added the Game manually again in Minion. I triple checked that the directory I'm installing AddOns in is in fact the directory I chose in the Minion options. I'd be happy with any tip you might offer. Thanks a lot, Jeckll, EU |
have kinda the same but opposite question.
If I delete the Folder with an AddOn .. Minion still says its installed. |
Jeckll can you post your minion.xml? that file is used as a small database for installed addons. If there is something wrong with it and it can't write to the file to record the downloads or its deleted it will cause problems and require you to re-download addons for them to stay in Minion. So if you recently deleted your minion.xml yes you'll need to re-download some addons in Minion for them to stay showing but after that it should continue to remember them unless there is a problem with your minion.xml.
TheBelgarion, when you delete AddOns just use Minion to do it. Right click on the AddOn in the installed list and choose "Uninstall". Right now Minion doesn't do a sanity check for addons removed manually. |
Hey,
always wondered how to deinstall I think "Uninstall" Button instead of disabled "installed" Button in the AddOns Page might be good. thx |
That might be an idea. Worth the team talking about, at the very least. :)

I've never been able to get Minion to detect all of my add-ons, that's why I really don't use it. Here is my .xml

Permabad, Minion will remember ones you've downloaded through Minion. So just re-download them (it wont mess with your addon settings) and Minion will start to track the AddOn and should continue to remember it. AddOns are very small so it won't take much of your bandwidth either.
Thanks for posting your minion.xml, everything looks good and it looks like it is already keeping track of 8 AddOns you've downloaded through Minion. Code:
<addon md5="5e5d4b9c9adfd59509a23d47690d1106" ui-version="0.11b" uid="333"/> |
Thought I'd just ask here instead of creating a new thread...
So Dolby, what you're saying is if Minion is not detecting an addon that was downloaded outside of minion, I can just install it through minion and it won't mess with any of the settings for the addon? Without uninstalling/deleting the folder that the addon is currently in? I'm having this problem with about 7 of my addons (out of 12) and JUST got finished setting them all up in game and then I found Minion. I really don't want to have to do all that over again. Thanks! |

That is why if your having a problem with an AddOn just re-installing the AddOn doesnt fix it. Usually its something wrong in the SavedVariable file. |
Ah, that makes sense!
Thanks for the quick reply! |
