    Hello,

    Is there any way to hide certain products from Vienna Assistant that are not installed?

    I don't really use Vienna Instruments anymore, so I don't currently have it on my system, and the few VI libraries that I own continually show up in the "Not Installed" section. The same is true of Epic Orchestra 1.0, which was replaced by Epic Orchestra 2.0 but still shows that bright green "10" to appear next to the Not Installed header.

    If there is no capability to do this, could I request it? It would be great to have this ability, even through editing some kind of text file or registry, that way it is easier to see if there are things that I actually might want that can be installed. Or an "ignore" button to ignore the fact that it is not installed, so it is relegated to the "All" list.

    It mostly bugs my OCD to see the number 10 next to "Not Installed", when the VI products are things I don't want installed. 😂

    It is actually the reason I'm not buying more products - I want to eventually get Synchron FX Strings, and the Big Bang Orchestra FX Strings is on sale now for a great price, but if I buy the BBO FX Strings and upgrade to Synchron FX Strings, I'm forever going to have BBO FX Strings in my product list. Similar situation for VI series libraries where I want to get the Synchron-ized version but I'm not pulling the trigger on the VI version because I'll end up with more products that show "Not Installed".

    Thanks!

    I would go further and ask is there anyway to remove [permanently] products from the iLok listing?

    Just a beginner

    Trying to revive this topic instead of creating a new post that has the same question as the original post.

    After trying out a few 30 day demos I'd like to remove those that I'm not buying. And, removing the VIs after upgrading to Synchronized for example.

    Bumping this again - would it be possible to add a check box "Hide discontinued products" in the Vienna Assistant properties (defaulting to unchecked) that could hide things like Vienna Instruments, SS1, etc.?

    Another bump. I tend to forget why I didn't install a particular library or application and have to check again:

    • because I have the optimised content already installed
    • because it is obsolete
    • because I want the pro version only
    • because I wait for the compressed library
    • ...
