Default Track presets in PT11

So I have a nice batch of track presets that work great in 10, but I can't for the life of me, figure out how/where to put them so I can use them in 11. Any Windows user that has it working, help me before I go insane

What I've tried so far; copied the folder with all my track presets into any/all folders that contain session templates(including my custom session templates, which work in 11). Also tried(in prefs) to direct Pro Tools 11 to a specific folder. None of this works. Sadly, I had it working in the first version I installed(first release of 11), but updates caused a disconnect. Also tried using guitardom's handy Trasher to set this up, again with no success(and now can't find/install or uninstall Trasher).

PT11 is working fine overall, but this is one stumbling block that's ruining my days

No prob. Trasher is set to create the Track Preset folder in the proper place as well.

I know, but sadly, I am having an issue with Trasher too. Okay, 5 minutes later and I am still up a creek. According to the thread, my folder(and sub folders) is in the correct place and still PT11 does not find them. This stinks

5 minutes later STILL. Finally managed to install Trasher 11, but, it can't/won't create a track presets folder(see jpeg). Beforehand, I moved any/all of my track presets out to avoid confusion.[QUOTE

Albee,

Here is a gif of my folder structure - just to make sure we are talking about the same location for PT 11 and Win 8.1. Also, and I'm sure you are aware, the track presets need to have .ptxt extensions.

Hope this helps,
Greg

Albee,

One other thing you might try is to create 1 new track preset from within PT. That might tell PT where to look for your presets or trigger some code....

Tried this too(already). Should not the presets that work in 10, already be in the correct format for 11? I had them working in the first release of 11 but an update caused them to stop working, and i have been stymied ever since. The folder tree is one of the places I tried to use(I have actually copied the entire folder of track presets to every place I could think of, in hopes that PT11 would find one of the batches, but no love on this one
