Where do I put third-party plugins for Adobe Premiere Pro CS6?

I have a couple of third party .plugin files that I want to use with Adobe Premiere Pro CS6. However, double-clicking them doesn't install them, nor does Adobe help give any hints on where to put them.

The Premiere Pro application folder doesn't contain a Plug-Ins directory as I remember it.

Depending on your operating system, you need to put the files here:

  • Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-Ins\CS6\MediaCore\

  • OS X: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Plug-Ins/CS6/MediaCore/

Copy them there, and don't forget to restart Premiere Pro to have them recognized.

For other versions Creative Cloud, the folder is not CS6 but 7.0.

It didn't work for me. But it did work when I installed in another folder. That is, Go to Adobe > Adobe Premiere Pro > Plug- ins > Common

Here you will see all those transitions, effects which are seen in 'Effects' while using the program. Paste all the plug-ins there.
