Question Unused/Active plug ins folder, where is it?

Hi
I posted yesterday about plug ins from digi racks II not being available in LE 7.4
Much to my relief I was informed that there is an Unused Plugs folder and if I move the old plugs to the Active Folder I should be fine.
I am however having trouble locating where these folders are and how to access them.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Bleeder

Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Digidesign

Both folders are here. Move from Plugins unused to plugins.

Can you take plugins out of this folder on one computer and transfer them to another computer and put them in the same folder?

Typically yes, though some plug-ins may not work like this (Waves, for instance), as they have files installed elsewhere on the computer that are necessary for them to function.

So in theory...if you were able to locate these files, you could actually copy a plug-in off a computer that someone has paid for, and just stick it on yours?
