PT DAE-folder not found

[Voideco]

Hi all.

On installing a couple of plugins I got the message "DAE-folder not found" or so. It couldn't therefore install my new Autotune.

I'm using PTLE 6.4 here w/001. Did I do something wrong when I installed my PT? Any suggestions?

It's strongly suggested that you install to your C: (boot) drive.

Which language OS are you running and what's the exact path to your DAE Plug-ins folder?

Hi Rail.

Well I did install PTLE (6.4) in C:\Program Files. My OS is Windows XP Pro with SPI included already. No security updates, no internetconnection, clean as a baby.

About the location of the DAE folder, I'm not sure. At the moment I'm downstairs sitting behind another pc, I should go and take a look. Oh wait, there is no DAE folder at all. It should be on the location where everybody has it, PT setup doesn't deviate from standard installation procedures I assume.

Thanks for the reply, I'm trying to get a grip on this thing, maybe I should install PTLE over the current installation so that an option would appear to repair/overwrite a previous installation. As long as I haven't tried that yet it remains an option to me unless you tell me it won't work.

Still hoping for answers/tips/etc.

Tnx ,

Walther,

The path for plug-ins with 6.4 should be:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Digidesign\DAE\Plug-Ins

Yeah, I've got it. I'm upstairs now and behind my rig. Found the folder, don't know why I could find it the first time but it was because of some errormessage saying: "DAE-folder nor found" or so. Then the installation of Autotune failed due to the error on my pc.

Meanwhile I'm having these ennoying errormessages on PT startup. Think they all find their cause in the same error, one problem with various symptoms I suppose. I installed a couple of demo plugz as well yesterday or the day before, can't try any of them because of another error, or the same but with another message.

Sorry for thoughtlessly ringing the alarm. I'm having loads of issues happening since the installation of the plugz, but I guess I'll have to study deeper in the material myself prior to asking any questions. So will anything I ask make more sense.

In order to see the message about the missing DAE-folder again I guess I'd have to install that particular plugin again but I forgot which one. Ah well, another learningcurve I suppose.

Thanks for your time and good luck Rail.
