Unable to install dynamic range meter 1.1.1 on Foobar

Running Foobar 1.3.8 on Windows 10 Pro x64. I downloaded the 1.1.1 DR plug-in for Foobar from http://dr.loudness-war.info/. I unzipped the contents to a folder on my desktop, and on Foobar went to File -> Preferences -> Components -> Install... Pointed it to the folder on my desktop that contains the .dll and it's not showing up. Did I do something wrong?

The dialog only displays files with the extension .zip or .fb2k-component by default. If you only have the DLL file, you need to change the display to "All files". This can be done by entering an asterisk (*) in the file name field and pressing Enter.

Alternatively, you can add the DLL file to a ZIP archive (or use the archive you downloaded initially), which is the safer method.

Foobar is too good for me. I thought I had to unpack the archive first, but Foobar works directly with the zip. It works now. Thanks.
