And the rest of my question?

As well, which plugin is that, how did you launch it, etc?

How did you install it, and is the error message exactly the same for every plugin? Do any plugins work?

You still haven't answered Llorean's question about how you launched the plugins that do not work, or whether any plugins work.

You didn't read the manual.

Viewers are plugins which are associated with specific file extensions. They cannot be run directly but are started by “playing” the associated file.

That's also not what would be called "launching normally".  There is a "Plugins" item in the Main Menu, which I'd say is the expected way to launch plugins (other than viewers).
