Ableton Plug-In Problems
Posted: Tue Feb 05, 2019 4:38 pm
Hi there, I've recently tried installing some plug-ins into Ableton from this website:

The thing is, I'm not sure how exactly to install the plug-ins. After downloading, the file simply appears in my "Downloads section", and I'm lost as to what to do after that. The official website mentions that third-party plug-ins are "usually installed to a subfolder of Program Files which is named after the plug-in developer." and that "The default system folder for VST plug-ins is: C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins - 64-bit plug-ins."
However, in my Program files, I have neither an Ableton subfolder or a VSTPlugins sub-folder. Am I supposed to create one myself? I'm not sure if there is something wrong with the Ableton installation as all my other DAW applications, upon installing, have a subfolder created.
If anyone has any experience with such issues, your advice would be appreciated immensely. Thank you!
