Somehow, my default folder that is recognized when installing VST stuff got changed too "%VSTPLUGINS%" instead of C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VST. I remember that this default setting could be changed in the preferences in cubase 5.1, but I cant find a way to do this in SX2.0. Is there a registery file that needs to be edited or something to change this in SX 2.0?

dem bloody war3z installers, hu ?

start regedit, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/VST

There's a key called "VSTPluginsPath", set this to your desired location.

Another method is to change the default path inside Cubase:

DEVICES/PLUG-IN INFORMATION

bduffy: AFAICR this does change the folder where cubase looks for plugins, but does not change the default installation folder for newly installed plugins (which was the question to my understanding).

Sorry, I assumed it would affect that also. Right you are.

Worked like a charm! Thanks!
