Thanks. So I get to number 4 but cannot see the check box for the new plugins?

Installation.

1. Copy files "Recorder_Tablature_S_B.qml", "Recorder_Tablature_S_G.qml", "Recorder_Tablature_A_B.qml", "Recorder_Tablature_A_G.qml" to foler "%userprofile%\Documents\MuseScore2\Plugins" or "%programfiles(x86)%\MuseScore2\Plugins"
2. Install font "RecorderFontYamahaEdition.ttf" (double click on file - Install)
3. Run MuseScore
4. Go to menu Plugins - Plugin Manager, check Recorder_Tablature_S_B, Recorder_Tablature_S_G, Recorder_Tablature_A_B, Recorder_Tablature_A_G or only what you need, press Îê.
5. In Plugins menu choose Recorder Tablature and needed type. Set font size (from 15 to 60) and press Îê.
6. Enjoy!

When you open the plugin manager, all of the available plugins will be listed. When you check it, your plugin menu will be modified to give you the option of running the plugin.

Thanks Mike, tried this but there is no new plugin showing, just the standard ones that were there to start with?
any ideas?

What operating system do you use?

Where did you put the .qml files?

Did you install the font file?

Hi, so I can see the files when I open the files from windows, but when I look through the plugins on musescore there is nothing there?
hope you can see from attachments?

I think I can barely see your problem. For some reason the .qml file seems to have an additional suffix of .txt. Right click one of the files and select properties. If .txt (or anything else) follows .qml then delete it and press OK or ignore (I forgot which it will say) when Windows warns that you are trying to change the file type. This should make the plugin visible to MuseScore.

nailed it mike! the file extension in properties has .txt at the end (after .qml) it is a text doc, cant see how to change the name unless I go back and try from start?
many thanks for sorting this for me!

Remove the extra extension like I explained above. Right click it and select properties. You can then remove the extra extension and press OK. When Windows warns you that you are changing the file type tell it OK or ignore, whichever of the options it gives you.

Ok, so now I can see the plugin Hohner SRG fingering, I have the font installed but when I input a note I do not get a diagram (ocaassionally I get a letter, just an alphabet letter, but I cannot even replicate that now, sorry for all the hassle!

Try opening that qml file in Plugin Creator, that may give helpful error messages
