AVISynth will not load plugins Win-7 (64)

[Sartorius48]

Hi I am using AVISynth to clean up old personal videos. I use a JVC Super VHS via Canopus ADVC300 feeding into my computer which is a Windows 7-64.
I use AVSPMod to test the Scripts and then try them out through MEGUI. It all works well except that I have to manually load all the External AVISynth filters and scripts.
My AVISynth is situated in the C:/ProgramFiles (x86) folder.
It is very cumbersome.
Could someone please assist me with automation in the Windows-7 64 environment?
I know this is a common problem but the solutions so far tried, do not work for me.

Thanks in advance.

Make sure you download and install AviSynth yourself. Don't rely on an AviSynth version included with some other software. Make sure you have these registry settings:

Thanks for your help.
I know I have an installation problem and when I look in the Registry I cannot see AVISynth but it is there because virtualDub runs an AVI file.
Not sure what is going on. I have Windows 7 - 64.
BTW I managed stupidly to "hide" System32 - not sure how to display it again. I can find it if I type "Run" at the Start, then "C:\Windows\System32" but cannot see it if I click on C:\ then Windows - WOW64 is there but no System32

The registry setting simply tells AviSynth where to look for plugins. Create the entries yourself. Or import from the attached .REG file (exported from my Win7 64 bit system, in a ZIP archive).

Why do you need to access the folder? Just go to Explorer's "Folder and Search Options" and change the View settings to "Show Hidden Files Folders and Drives".

I have Windows 7 64 bit;AviSynth installed the registry settings in a different location:

I have those in the Registry too. The OP should try both.

[Sartorius48]

Ugh I tried both Registry entries - - I still get the same message "There is no function called yadif etc". Here is what I wrote in the Registry as per instructions above.
I have checked all the pathways - no typos there.

I made a special KEY(?) called "AviSynth" and placed it in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE
but it won't work.
I have tried various filters in AVPMod - -

Yadif is a special case. It doesn't autoload. It must be loaded in your script with Load_Stdcall_plugin().

I just checked and sambat is right. 32 bit AviSynth under 64 Bit Win7 uses the settings in the Wow6432Node section. Here's the .REG file (in .ZIP). You should extract the .REG and double click on it.

Thanks for you advice and help.
Should I uninstall AviSynth and all registry entries then double click on your ZIP file and load it?
Where is the best and most reliable source of 32 AvviSynth AviSynth 2.6 MT for a 64 Bit Win 7?
Does double-clicking on the registry file you supplied overwrite all preceding files or do I have to remove them from the registry manually first?
I do not like playing with the registry much -
