Default Maxim not showing up in plug-in lists

Im new to pro tools, I have installed all of the AIR plugins. I have some of the basic plugins that come with Pro Tools 2018 but am missing the important ones. Currently I am missing maxim, Im just trying to figure out how to get it since it isnt shwoing up in my plugin lists.

Welcome to the community.

Which edition of Pro Tools do you have?

Understood. The Avid plugins usually have the associated download on each plugin page, see here for example

https://www.avid.com/plugins/focusrite-d2-d3

https://www.avid.com/plugins/smack

Maxim has no such download

https://www.avid.com/plugins/maxim

I think you'll find that is because Maxim is now installed by the Pro Tools installer as one of the default freebies along with these?

I did a ton of research on the matter and came up with nothing. Reinstalled pro tools and the free bundles and nothing.

Maxim is a so-called "core" plugin and installs when you launch PT11 or later the first time. Every PT version carries a proper version of Maxim and re-installs it even if you deleted maxim.aaxplugin from your plugin folder. It takes some hacking to get rid of it altogether.

I wonder if I didn't get the "core" plugins because I upgraded from pro tools first?

I have very little experience with First as I am a long-time HD / Ultimate user.

Anyway, this is what you have INSIDE PT APP and is some of these are missing on launch PT will copy that plugin in place.

Code:
% pwd

If you want to stop this copying from happening, you need to hack yourself into that PT application package and delete unwanted plugins.

Default Re: Maxim not showing up in plug-in lists

I couldn't find Maxim either contacted tech support who had me install 2019.12. Then I had no plugins. They said the Windows 10 antivitus software (mine is McAfee) was blocking the plugin installation. They signed in remotely and uploaded all the plugins. This took almost an hour but great support. If you're a windows user and having trouble installling the Avid plugin package try turning off your antivirus during installation.
