I want to make a plugin and I dont know if theres a guide that im missing or what. The plugin idea I have is basically to detect when an app is downloaded. Get the path for it and not make the original shortcuts but make a different app shortcut plugging in all the info into it but making the app run a custom ahk script instead and pass its app install locations to it. If someone could help that would be great.

Basically it isn't exactly "my script"(basicallyit runs corresponding to an x86 or x64 file i eventually want to add arm support and the ability to detect if one is missing) but imma edit it a lot to add these features:
- if its x64 and their is no x64 file than it'll ask if you want to run the x86 file
- somehow detect if there is only 1 app or if theirs two x64 files and stuff like that, and give options when downloading which you would like to link or to pop up a menu telling you to select one
(as an example autoruns has x86, x64 and x64 cmd versions, or maybe something like Revo Uninstaller which has one launcher(Which should be handled as it is already)

Cause right now the system dumps the x86 and x64 files into the folder and it clutters it quite a lot. Let me just show you the script and an image of an app its probably easier to understand that way.




a little explanation, using HWMonitor as reference, first off it installed itself on the root of the System folder originally as 2 separate files which makes digging through files a pain so i put it in a folder which still is a pain cause this script kinda makes it a 1 click solved kinda situation. So i found this script(attached) that simplifies the process and just detects your system architecture and runs the file based off your system. I still need to tweak it to do more so what I'm doing but yeah.

I also set an advanced parameter to set the directory of the program for ease of use just cause doing it manually is a pain hence why i was going to use a plugin if possible. I like automating stuff as a programmer that is just what I do.

Manually having to merge these like I did for HWMonitor is slow and tedious hence why I was asking. (Also yes I know someone posted about this script on this forum already but I plan on adding a few extra features that'll just really make it work well, full shout out to this forum for the original script that I will be editing https://ugmfree.it/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=345)

I don't want the plugin to run every time you launch an application I want it to not even be able to install anything. All I want it to do is change the shortcuts defined originally just like I had shown. If there is a simpler way of doing this through plugins that would be optimal. What programming language is it written in? (I have actually never used ahk its just what i was handed and was gonna teach myself it on the spot cause its simplicity for what I was doing, manually. If it were automated it would be a lot cleaner and way better setup wise, would just take me a few days to port it to a plugin and figure out syntax and stuff.)


I don't even need a script notify on program installation to be honest the plugin could run right after its installed find the folder and change the paths. It would have no ability to download anything besides changing the configuration of your downloads to be automated.


Ok now I see what you mean by the plugin needing to run every time they clicked an app ok ok. So depending on the programming language we could have the plugin never ask for Admin and only the app you're running to be that cause if you run it you could probably have the app ask for admin so the plugin would never be able to download stuff. Yeah I see the concerns of security but its still a good idea for my use case even if its a plugin only me and some close friends use then I would still want to know how top make a plugin and which programming language it would be in.

Ok I figured out, after some debugging of the two plugins I had, my issue is that I need to know what csproj file your using because I cannot figure out how to import the Libs directory into the dll. Or just inform me how, I could probably figure out the rest.
