plug in problems

[Joey Spag]

When I move plugins to the "plugin unused" folder to keep them disabled and them put them back into the "plugin folder" they won't load back up in pro tools. Some of the files are in the Waves folder to start but when I put them back where they started from, they still don't reload in. Am I putting something somewhere that it doesn't belong? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Joey

if you change your DAE you have to restart pro tools each time.
They won't load if pro tools is open.

This happens even when I shut down the computer and restart pro tools

I guess I don't understand your question...

Your Plugins All need to be in Your DAE/plugins Folder to work in pro tools.
If they are not in there, they will not work in the program.

yes....I put my waves plugins in the unused plugin folder when i track becuase they sometimes create errors. But when I drag them back into the regular plugin folder they do not load up when i restart pro tools.

then they are not real...

i figured out the problem

and that is?

I was putting the wrong files in the unused plugin folder. I didn't know that only the ".dpm" files go in and not all the files for the plugins.
