Hello all,


I have Odoo 13 Enterprise with minimal apps installed running locally on Windows 10 for development. 


I made my first custom module to change the appearance of the GUI.  I created and modified it with PyCharm, added it to the addons directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 13.0e\server\odoo\addons), restarted the server, enabled developer mode, updated the apps list, and it doesn't appear.  I've done this many times as both a user and superuser with little changes here and there but it still will not appear.  I've added the manifest and init code, as well as the log event of the module update below.  


Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!


Tom


**Edited to add**  Yes, I have updated the apps list and removed the default apps filter many, many times. 


**Further edited to add** I also tried adding 'application': True to the manifest, even though it's not an application just to see if it made a difference - and it still doesn't show up.  


Any ideas?

Have you tried removing the app filter from the Apps ? or try adding "application ": True in the manifest file.

update your app list and than refresh the web page.

Not necessarily an answer, but I managed to move past this by copying all of the files into a new module.  I don't understand why the same files worked in one directory but not another, but as soon as I tried it the module appeared in the apps list.  I feel it may be related to running on Windows, I had nothing but issues.  I'm now running it on an Ubuntu VM and it works flawlessly.  Thanks for the suggestions.
