Installation & Activation

To start using ezActions, follow these simple steps to install the plugin and activate your license.

System Requirements

  • Adobe Photoshop: Version 25.0.0 (Photoshop 2024) or higher is required.
  • Internet Connection: Required for the initial activation and periodic license checks.

Step 1: Download & Install

  1. Download: Log in to your account at The Orange Box – My Account and download the .ccx plugin file.
  2. Install: Double-click the downloaded .ccx file.
  3. Creative Cloud: The Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app will open automatically. Click “Install” (or “Install Locally”) and follow the on-screen prompts.
  4. Launch: Open Adobe Photoshop. Navigate to the top menu and select Plugins > ezActions to open the panel.

Step 2: License Activation

When you open ezActions for the first time, you will see the Login screen.

  1. Get your Serial Number: Go to your The Orange Box – My Account page to find your Serial Number (Purchase Code).
  2. Enter Credentials:
    • Email: Enter the email address used for your purchase.
    • Purchase Code: Paste your Serial Number into this field.
  3. Login: Click the Login button.

Once activated, your license is valid for offline use for up to 7 days before the plugin needs to verify the status online again.


Troubleshooting

  • Missing Plugin: If you don’t see ezActions under the Plugins menu, ensure you are using Photoshop version 25.0 or newer.
  • Login Errors: Double-check that there are no extra spaces when copying your Serial Number from your account page.
  • Version Warning: If you import a workflow and see a “Version Mismatch” alert, it simply means the workflow was created with a different version of the plugin. You can usually click “Open” to proceed.
