Ableton 11 - Add Folder Button Missing

Post by EMANGBORO63 » Thu Apr 22, 2021 5:25 pm

Just migrated to Ableton 11 Live Standard from Ableton 10 Live Standard.

There is not an Add Folder button in the Places section.

Has anyone experience this and is there a simple solution (fairly new, but seems like an odd problem)....

It only shows a selection for Open Folder... Which just takes you to explorer...

You can only add folders into Places, not into Categories. Does this help?

In the documentation and in Ableton 10 there is Add Folder button...

However in Ableton 11 that button doesn't show up...

You need to host it outside of this forum, on something like this.

Make sure you don't have another instance of Live open. Surest way is rebooting/restarting your computer.
