Plea to developer -- fully portable TLBhost

Ok, awesome. But now my plugins are not working, I know I am missing a step somewhere, but what I did was tried to copy the entire plugins directory into the portable version's plugins directory, I still see the TLB plugin icon in the toolbar and when I right click...click new.... I end up with just the standard menu with more plugins at the bottom with none of my plugins. I tried to install one of the plugins from the site and still the same issue, I installed it into the plugins directory under the portable version. Why must I have so much trouble, I know it is my fault, sorry to be a bother.
