Oh, Tex, I tell you a fairy tale.I think you need to unlink your filetypes from ST3 and then relink them so
.logbook3 and .fit open ST3; and
.st3plugin opens ST3 for plugin install.
This might require a windows uninstall and reinstall, possibly with a registry clean.
Without seeing your post actually I did the very same today. I even compared the registry keys and values between these two laptops as regards the hits for ".st3plugin". Finally I bravely changed or deleted some of it from "applicationassociationtoasts" on the new W10 64 laptop. These moves did not help.
Then I removed manually all the installed plugin folders into a temporary folder and desperately I clicked on one of the .st3plugin files. It properly installed. This file was in the root folder of the drive D:\
I was happy, but none of the other plugin install files ran properly. I checked all the properties of the good one and the bad ones. There was only one difference, the owner. But changing it to Guest to my windows account name made no difffernce.
Then I moved the good file into the same place where I stored all the other plugin install files and it did not work. I moved to some other folders and finally I had an idea, just some of the bloody Hungarian vowels with accents cause the problem, if any of them could be found in the path name of the plugin file to be installed.
And my test concluded with it: no problem with "á", "é", "í", "ó", "ö", "ü", just with "ő" and "ű". Funnily in German there are "ö" and "ü", but using "ő" and "ű" is almost fully unique all over the world.
And the root cause of this phenomenon has nothing to do with W7 and W10 difference, but with the fact that my W7 32 bit OS was installed in Hungarian version, but on the new laptop I went for the English version of W10 64 bit OS.
You know why, just to help myself in case of any troubleshooting, because one can find the exact references to OS related problems much much easier in English on the interweb. than in Hungarian. Big laugh on myself.
