<aside> 🗂️ REASON:

1. There is a missing file (utf8) not installed as well, this can easily be missed when manually installing Snap Captions,

2. The file location is security protected and the plugin can’t install properly

</aside>

<aside> 💡 **SOLUTION:

1.** Grab the file named utf8_snapcaptions from the zip folder and place it in the location below:

For Windows

For Mac

/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/Modules/Lua

<aside> ☝ Missing folder/ Sometimes, when DaVinci Resolve installs, some folders aren’t created. We’re not sure why 🤷‍♂️. No worries though!

If you have any missing folder (e.g., modules, lua, etc.), you can create the folder (using the same name) yourself and copy the utf8 file inside
