INSTALLATION

Add plugin to Lightroom:
1) Download the plugin from: https://www.fujifilmtoolkit.com/#download
2) Unzip the downloaded file so that you have access to the 'FujifilmToolkit_v###.lrplugin' file
3) Move this single file to a permanent location on your hard drive (eg: your 'Pictures' directory)
	- On Windows, this needs to be a folder that the plugin can read/write to (for functionality requiring temporary files) - notably do NOT put it in a synced folder (like 'OneDrive') or restricted folder (like 'Program Files'), which recent versions of Windows locks
4) Launch 'Adobe Lightroom Classic'
5) Open the Plug-in Manager (in the toolbar, select: 'File' -> 'Plug-in Manager') and click 'Add'
6) Locate the .lrplugin file from above on your hard drive (where you stored it in step 3) and click 'Add Plug-in' (on Mac) or 'Select Folder' (on Windows)


REGISTRATION/ACTIVATION

Register the full version of the plugin to unlock batch processing:
1) Purchase a license from: https://www.fujifilmtoolkit.com/#buy
2) A 'Registration Key' will be immediately sent to the email address associated with the payment (check your spam folder if for some reason you do not see it) - note this and keep it private
    - The 'Registration Key' will be of the form: 20G877765A999873K
3) Launch 'Adobe Lightroom Classic'
4) Open the Plug-in Manager (in the toolbar, select: 'File' -> 'Plug-in Manager')
5) Select 'Fujifilm Toolkit' from the plugin list on the left
6) Enter your 'Registration Key' and click the 'Activate' button
    - If you're on Windows and repeatedly get a 'Connection Error', the connection to the activation server is mistakenly being blocked by your system. The easiest workaround is to temporarily disable Windows Defender Firewall and re-enable it after successfully activating the plugin. Instructions for your doing so on your particular version of Windows can be found from Microsoft here:
