Zotero Integration Error with Word plugin 3.5.5

cjb

Hi, the Zotero Word for Windows Integration plugin has updated to 3.5.5 on both my work desktop and my laptop, and on both I get the following error now when trying to Add/Edit Citation:

[JavaScript Error: "couldn't open library C:\Users\u3342134\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\u3342134\extensions\zoteroWinWordIntegration@zotero.org\resource\libzoteroWinWordIntegration.dll: error 193" {file: "file:///C:/Users/u3342134/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/u3342134/extensions/zoteroWinWordIntegration@zotero.org/components/zoteroWinWordIntegration.js" line: 48}]'[JavaScript Error: "couldn't open library C:\Users\u3342134\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\u3342134\extensions\zoteroWinWordIntegration@zotero.org\resource\libzoteroWinWordIntegration.dll: error 193" {file: "file:///C:/Users/u3342134/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/u3342134/extensions/zoteroWinWordIntegration@zotero.org/components/zoteroWinWordIntegration.js" line: 48}]' when calling method: [zoteroIntegrationApplication::getDocument]

Is this happening to others? If not, any suggestions for repair/workaround?

Thanks,
Carl

Yes!! I too would like some suggestions for repair or work around.

Ah okay so after actually RTFMing, it's the Firefox 64-bit incompatibility? What threw me was that it seemed to work okay for me with the previous version of the plugin (I've been on the 64-bit version for a few months).

Workaround of running Zotero Standalone in the background seems to work fine, I'm assuming there's no ETA for a 64-bit plugin...

yes it is and no, sorry, no eta.
It's possible this might not happen at all, depending on whether the 5.0 version of Zotero will ship as Standalone only (with a Firefox connector, of course). I don't think devs have made the final call on that.

Fixed in version 3.5.6 of the Word plugin: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/263588/#Comment_263588
