Creating a plugin system

So yeah, I'm trying to build an application(for personal use) which will have a number of different uses(password manager, proxy scraper, some other stuff). Anyways, I want to create a base application which handles the login and session management, and uses a plugin system for its other uses.

This is what I've figured out so far

Base app with login and local storage of data
Plugins folder to load dll's from(https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsd...n-b6174b62)

What I'm stuck with :

1. How do I add the functionality(ex. Password Manager-app specific controls to the main form? supposingly in a new tab)
2. Enable/Disable plugins from the main app.

Trying to delve into the deeper sections of C#, thanks for any help

This article covers most of your questions.
You need to create two separate assemblies and then dynamically load the 'plugin' into the main application on runtime.
