Hello!
I've installed some plug-ins and virtual instruments before and they worked for a while.
Now, I can't install any plugin or VST or anything into waveform
I usually encounter this error: "The following file encountered a fatal error during validation"
and when I manually validate files (Using "Validate file" or Validate selected") they appear for a sec and then *poof*

some of the instruments and plugins I've tried and/or want to install
(I tried the default Steinberg VST plugin)

Spitfire audio plug-ins
Sweetcase EP
any 64-bit plugin
What is causing the issue?
Please help
thanks!

Don't waste your time with Waveform.

I googled "free DAW" and at the top was this list of 17 free DAWs...

Waveform (paid) is a far far far better DAW to me than Ableton or Reaper, for example.

OP: have you tried posting in the official forum here on KVR? Or contacting them directly?

Cakewalk by Bandlab is way more comprehensive.

But, "great" is pretty subjective, of course.

But the free version is about to run out to be replaced with paid options.

So grab it while you can!

True, but, it looks like it will be running for a while.
