Default "Xpand2.big" Xpand2 closes PT10

I finally got my Pro tools 10 Running on OSX 10.7.2

However when I try and open Xpand2 it gives me the following message.

THE FACTORY CONTENT WAS NOT FOUND:

/Applications/Digidesign/Pro... Creative Collection/Xpand2/

PLEASE LOCATE THE CONTENT FILE "Xpand2.big"


I click browse and find the file folder it is looking for and press choose.

It then closes Pro tools.

I just did a full Uninstall-Reinstall hoping that would help... It didn't

All of the other instruments (Boom, Vacuum, Structure etc.) gave me the same screen, however when I found the .big file they opened without a problem.


Anyone else having this problem ? Any solutions ?

Did you run the Avid_Virtual_Instrument_10_Installer_73465.dmg after installing PT 10?

The VI's shouldn't be looking for *.big files in;
/Applications/Digidesign/Pro..

It should be replace by;
/Applications/Avid/Avid Virtual Instruments/.....

and they should have found them in there. Other than Velvet and I think Strike, which I believe require separate upgrades.
