  • VE Pro 7 - plugin validation fails

    O/S: Windows 10

    Pro version: 7.3.3725

    Steps I have taken.

    1) Uninstalled the software

    2) Deleted all .ini files under Users/%UserName%/Appdata/Roaming/VSL/

    3) Installed VE Pro 7 from Vienna Assistant.

    4) When I start VE Pro 7, it automatically starts scanning for plugins - which I didn't expect since I have not added any folders in the vst settings on preferences.

    5) Many Ujam plugins, Arturia plugins fail validation, although I have no problem using them in Cubase.

    So here are my two questions.

    Based on above steps, looks like there is somewhere VE Pro 7 knows which folders to scan. Where is that file located on Windows 10.

    Secondly, what should I do to have ensure all VST3 plugins do not fail validation.

    This is wasting a lot of my time.


  • Hi! VST3 plugins on Windows have a fixed location. You don't need to add them manually (and they aren't excluded). If a plugin hangs during validation, causing a loop, please use the skip button.
