Dear SnapEDA team,
I am foolwing the following tutorial:
"
How to Install the SnapEDA Plugin for Altium
Extract the zipped folder contents to /Documents/SnapEDA
Upon launching Altium, go to DXP > Run Script
Select browse and point to the Snapeda.PrjScr script inside the /Documents/SnapEDA directory
Click SnapEDA.vbs > SnapEDAPlugin to run the installation. Follow the prompts and re-start Altium.
Run the SnapEDA plugin with the Ctrl+D shortcut, or from the File menu.
Need assistance? Contact us at [email protected]."
I got multiple error messages:
The first one is:
error message:
"index out of range: (number -2)
breakpoint:
Set objItems = objmgt.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Process WHERE Name LIKE 'DXP.EXE'") /line 113, snapeda vbs
a.) The 18.X Altium versions are native 64 processes.
b.) The new version has changed the main executable name from DXP.EXE to X2.EXE.
If i correct the query, like
Set objItems = objmgt.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Process WHERE Name LIKE 'X2.EXE'")
i got another error:
at first save+stop+ re-run:
error:
type mismatch: cInt
breakpoint:
AltiumVersion = cInt(strVerNumber) /line 127, snapeda.vbs
second save+stop+ re-run:
error:
overflow: cInt
breakpoint:
AltiumVersion = cInt(strVerNumber) /line 127
It seems the problem lies in the version detection routine. The current version is 18.1.9 (build 240)
I don"t know well (and don"t like at all) the Visual Basic language, so, pls help me with this one. THXC.

Hello,
Thanks for contacting us! I spoke with our developers and they told me that currently we only support Version 17 of Altium with the plugin.
You can download the libraries for Altium for any version though on SnapEDA's website. And you can also batch together multiple libraries to make the import process easier too. This video shows how. I'll let you know once we support 18 version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VA7JN3xQaY
Thanks for your time,
Elizabeth
