I try to make my answers for both Mac and Windows - for others who may Search:

The Root Plug-ins Settings folder is harder to find. On a Mac in Pro Tools 10 and below, it is Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Digidesign/Plug-in Settings. Within this folder, each plug-in has its own subfolder. On Windows machines, the location is C:/Program Files/Common Files/Digidesign/DAE/Plug-in Settings, and again, each plug-in has its own folder.

Sir Jeffro - could you please add the location on a Mac for Pro Tools 11 and Pro Tools 12? (for future Searchers).
Is it: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Avid/Plug-in Settings ?
Much appreciated.
I don't know Mac.

Appreciate that. Not so much about Mac vs Win though... I didn't see that they were having trouble with settings - they said the plug-in isn't loading. Sounds more like VST vs AAX, or possibly a 32-bit AAX version (should be 64-bit)?

For Mac: Macintosh HD/Users/*username*/Documents/Pro Tools/Plug-In Settings

To OP (Rob)
The Installer from Simon Bangs/AIR Music Technology does not include AAX.

Compatible with AU and VST only.

(As previously mentioned) – also install (from your Avid account):
Xpand II 12.0 Installer (Mac) 1.12 GB
