This is regarding avisynth+

There are 4 plugins directories:
c:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth+\plugins\
c:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth+\plugins+\
c:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth+\plugins64\
c:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth+\plugins64+\

I have this: [ffms2-2.23.1-msvc.7z]ffms2-2.23.1-msvc\x64\ffms2.dll.

Does it matter to which directory I copy ffms2.dll? If so, which one?

Technically, no, it doesn't matter, apart from 64-bit plugins going in plugins64(+) and 32-bit plugins going in plugins(+). AviSynth+ treats all of its autoload directories as equivalent to one another. By convention (not any reason in the AviSynth+ code), the + directories are used for plugins that specifically target AviSynth+ and its featureset: the most obvious ones being the plugins AviSynth+ itself ships with, but there are others.

FFMS2 actually still supports classic AviSynth as well as Plus, so since you're using Plus, it doesn't really matter whether you put it in plugins64 or plugins64+.
