This is an ask.

I am having problems with STUDIO ONE not removing the plugins I removed from the scanned folders, as shown in its Instrument Browser.

Worse than that, it appears it has had the OBxa from KVR331 (old VST instrument) listed in the vendor heading in the instrument tab of the browser, for Arturia.

For a long time I wondered, why it was that OBxa showed up there, as Arturia calls their Synth the OP V Collection. Turns out it was placed there somehow in error by Studio One's organization algorithms(???).

So I didn't discover this the many times I attempted to drag it to a track and it didn't work. I finally made a dedicated instrument track using the track dialog and set the OBxa as the instrument. When it opened I finally discovered why it never would drag to a track because inside DISCODSP folder in documents a Themes folder was missing (a big banner showed this notification Imagewhere should have opened the VST GUI). I went to that file path and found a manual for the KVR331 OBxa there.

So I solved the mystery of why the VSTi wouldn't open, but I still can't get Studio One to update this list in its Browser.

Is there a db file or a cache I can clear to reset these browser lists in Studio One? Any1 have any experience with clearing the Studio One browser?
Thanks in advance.
