I'm not sure if this is portable as this was a quick hack. This also does not auto-install to the KeePass 2.x directory and in fact does not need it to be actually installed. I am able to copy-paste it to any other project's post-build event, however, it does assume that the current directory is the output directory which in turn is ..\Build\$(ConfigurationName)\DLL\ and that KeePass.exe is in the same directory as the Build directory. echo POSTBUILDSTEP for $(ProjectName) set PLGXDIR=$(SolutionDir) if “%PLGXDIR:~-1%”==”\” set PLGXDIR=%PLGXDIR:~0,-1% rmdir /s /q ..\PLGX mkdir ..\PLGX copy /y *.txt ..\PLGX\ move /y "$(SolutionDir)obj" ..\ ..\..\..\..\KeePass.exe --plgx-create "%PLGXDIR%" move /y ../obj "$(SolutionDir)" move /y "..\..\..\$(ProjectName).plgx" ..\PLGX\ Tested on Visual C# 2008 Express Edition.
