I’ll check when I get home. If this is the case that would mean that the installer of TPAI v1.2.10 removed the plugin folder. I didn’t update or change Capture One (22) in the last months.
The TPAI documentation on plugins was changed from the screenshot I shared under “new” to again mention “process using…” And states:
DO NOT use Image > Edit with > Topaz Photo AI on images. This option does not import the image back to Capture One.
This is false. TPAI shows a “save to Capture one” button and the processed tif is saved and visible back in CO. Sometimes the CO preview needs to be regenerated though, because it still shows the original copy.
–update:
The Plugins folder was indeed missing. This must’ve happened when installing v1.2.10; this is when the plugin went missing.
Perhaps related to Topaz Photo AI v1.2.10:
Copying the com.topazlabs.TopazPhotoAI folder to a newly created plugins folder indeed restored it.
