When I install these plugins,My PC goes into a fit and I get a blue screen.

I had to go to a restore point to get my PC back again on windows 11.


I did not know what was killing my PC the last time I had Windows 11 installed but I am sure it's these plugins.

They have removed the PC versions from their website so must be aware of the problem but it sucks for us PC folks who bought these plugins that are now unusable.

Yeah it's the Sonivox plugins - it's a super old iLok driver that gets installed that does it (also affects some AiR plugins):

Bloody scary when it happens but luckily not too tricky a fix (renaming/deleting Tpkd.sys in windows/system32/drivers... once you actually manage to get into your machine!). Removed all my purchases all the same, far too dangerous !

Steer clear of Sonivox cancer.

I have found out it's the Sonnivox pace driver that kills some of the Air plugins as well.
I have no issues with the latest Ilok and Air plugins as long as the Sonnivox plugs ARE NOT installed.

Stay away from Sonnivox until they provide a Windows 10/11 update which I am gathering they will charge us for lol.
