Hello,  
I write a loadable module by ExtentenWizard, and then build it using cmake and visualstudio2013.  
After that,I add additional path to 3Dslcier.(Application Setting Dialog -\> Module -\> Add additional module path), Restart Slcier!  
But my custom module doesn’t appear in Module Navigation Interface.  
My custom module path is D:\Slicer4D\Slicer-build\lib\Slicer-4.7\qt-loadable-modules, I am sure it’s OK.  
I’ll appreciate it If someone can help me with the puzzle.  
Ziheng Shen.

I should add the filepath of ‘lib’, not ‘Debug’.

I guess you mean you instead of this path:

```
D:\Slicer4D\Slicer-build\lib\Slicer-4.7\qt-loadable-modules

```

you had to use this:

```
D:\Slicer4D\Slicer-build\lib\Slicer-4.7\qt-loadable-modules\Debug
```

The solution is to fix [https://issues.slicer.org/view.php?id=4183](https://issues.slicer.org/view.php?id=4183)

Now that CTKAppLauncherLib is a dependency of Slicer, it should be fairly straightforward. The, updating the additional module path and restarting Slicer should allow to have all required path added the settings.
