First make sure that you apply the plugin to a specific Tin Whistle staff (and not to a Voice or other instrument)

(and its workaround.)
That's done, it works.

Either the OP did not do it correctly, or it is the question of selecting the right staff, since in his file, the Tin Whistle staff was empty, and the Voice staff was filled.

The font is installed for all users, I appreciate that it may be of no use in notepad but when I type d in notepad I get the correct tablature displayed.

Try opening the plugin in the plugin creator and run it from there. This may give error messages that may hint at what the problem is
Also make sure to run it against a Tin Whiste staff, not any other

Yes, as I wrote earlier, your first attachment - image below - had a "Voice" staff, while the Tin Whistle staff, which was supposed to be the first one involved, was empty. It couldn't fit. Again, this plugin works ONLY with a Tin Whistle staff, containing notes, of course :)

There are surely Irish music sites (in MIDI format for example) on the web. On musescore.com, I see this page: https://musescore.com/sheetmusic?text=tin+whistle
