Install help
No installer for the DaVinci Resolve plugins or for AVF FilmGrade in Premiere Pro & After Effects — just copy and paste, or one line in Terminal / PowerShell. Your computer asks for its password (Mac) or a Continue click (Windows): that's normal, because the plugins folder is shared by all users.
