Absolutely! Didn't mean to contradict you, just adding a caveat to your suggestion. I'm always happy to complicate matters!

.., its gone and i can't see where it is to download from anywhere. ve spent 4 hours on the net and zero luck (ive downloaded reinstalled the AIR package twice and its no longer amongst that package

many old projects used xpand and many had complex settings, and i need it back badly

As far as I know, Xpand is now called Xpand II, and I can see it to download in my account under "Product Details and Download Links" in my Pro Tools Ultimate section.

Good luck. I'm glad you are making progress!

Thank you kindly to all you guys for the help.

I'm up and running now and it was a long and tedious task by loading my huge amount of plugins either one or a few at a time but I got there and weeded out a few culprits, and a few others that i guess id missed an update on.

As i can load up my projects now,

- but next, I will also go through with all the optimizations, etc

- deal with a dilemma
... to update some of my WAVES plugins that hardly get used,
as they are version 9 (or 10) and seems some won't work anymore,
ie; without paying big money i haven't got

anyhow .., just want to say thanks guys

ps ; to get Xpand2 back i had to sign up and download and install the protools first app, and that install deposited xpand2 into my axx folder
(note) ; i later trashed everything from that install except for xpand two .., it was not anywhere else to be found on my system from other suggestions
