And then you have to try to remember which one you had and where you kept the authorizations codes. resetting passwords to every website because you haven't logged in in 3 or 4 years. And then waiting for my slow ass satellite internet to download everything.
Wish there was a better way.
Would be cool if the iLok system had a link built in to go download the software automatically, so you just slect which ones you want to install and it fetches the installers remotely from each website.

This is why I dedicate a separate drive for nothing but installers. And a listing of what plugins I got from where, their auth codes, serial numbers, etc. And of course a list of site logins & passwords that is NOT on my computer.
