I am working on this issue, however could you try setting the HDF5_PLUGIN_DIR
environment variable to the path to your dynamic filter. Keep things simple
like SET HDF5_PLUGIN_DIR=C:\\ProgramData. Then try using hdfview.

Hello everyone!
I've just implemented custom HDF5 dynamic filter (LZ4 compression), and
it works nicely when I register it "statically" in my code.
I have put my plugin lz4.dll into
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\hdf5\lib\plugin\
But when trying to open compressed HDF5 file in HDFView 2.10.1, it says:
Can't open directory or file.
My loyal servant procmon.exe reports that HDFView tries to access dir

Thank you for reporting the problem. For your reference, I entered bug
HDFFV-1880. We plan to address it in the next release 2.11. I will send
email when the fix is available in the snapshot.
Hello Elena!
I've just checked version 2.11, and unfortunately the bug is still there. My previous workaround is still applicable, however.
Hopefully, the bug would be addressed soon.
Cheers,
Andrey Paramonov

I think the bug is that HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH specifies relative, not absolute path now. I could workaround the problem by adding
set HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH=plugins
into my hdfview.bat and dropping plugin dll into C:\Program Files (x86)\HDF_Group\HDFView\2.10.1\bin\plugins\.
Btw, I have noticed that INSTALLDIR is not specified correctly in hdfview.bat, for HDFView x86 installed on Windows x86-64. It starts with C:\Program Files\ but should start with C:\Program Files (x86)\. So, I had to tweak hdfview.bat to get it running.
Best wishes,

I have reopened JAVA-1880. Evidently there were two bugs - one in HDF5 and one
in HDFView? Everything should work if you set the ENV VAR because we do test
with that technique.

Hello Elena!
I've just checked version 2.11, and unfortunately the bug is still
there. My previous workaround is still applicable, however.
After further investigation, the issue remains an HDF5 bug with the default
value on WINDOWS. It is not correctly expanding %ALLUSERSPROFILE%
The workaround is to set the env var: HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH
The bug issue has been moved to HDFFV-9048.

The path should be absolute. Win I tried the ENV VAR everything worked. I
believe the problem is that the slashes in the default path were incorrect and
the relative path was just the normal windows handling when it cannot locate a
file.
I have fixed the slashes in the next release of hdf5 - the
config/cmake/ConfigureChecks.cmake file. I will add this use case to the
regression testing suite.

I think the bug is that HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH specifies relative, not
absolute path now. I could workaround the problem by adding
set HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH=plugins
into my hdfview.bat and dropping plugin dll into C:\Program Files
(x86)\HDF_Group\HDFView\2.10.1\bin\plugins\.
Btw, I have noticed that INSTALLDIR is not specified correctly in
hdfview.bat, for HDFView x86 installed on Windows x86-64. It starts with
C:\Program Files\ but should start with C:\Program Files (x86)\. So, I
