How to install plugins in Ableton Live 11?
Hi everyone! It’s been weeks that I can’t install plugins on my Ableton Live 11,I have to admit that I’m quite ignorant with computer so also the easiest thing seems difficult to me ahah.
So please someone can explain to me how to install them,I have a 64 bit Windows 10 computer if that helps
I know that dll files are fundamental but the problem is that when I install some vst I don’t have any dll file

What do you want to install?
Only 64 bit plugins are supported
Vst2 and Vst3 have different folders
Vst3 folders should not be replaced, otherwise it won't work
If you know the location of your Vst2 folder direct Live to it in the preference pane!
And most of all read manuals to find out what is going on!!!!

Re: How to install plugins in Ableton Live 11?
I was trying to install Ample Guitar M II and obviously I downloaded the 64 bit version,during the installation I directed it on the folder that I created for my vst and it appears,then I put that folder as my favourite on Ableton but it doesn’t appear on there,I tried several times but probably I forgot a step but I don’t know which

You need to set that folder in Ableton preferences and scan it, should then show up in your plugins list in Abletons browser.

And you can use "ALT" key pressed while clicking the scan button, to force Live to scan them all!

Maybe you need to learn basics of installing products where YOU want them, not let the installers do their own thing. That way, YOU know where the .dll file is.emrald8020 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 13, 2021 3:40 pmI know,I already did it but it doesn’t work,the problem is that in that folder I don’t have any .dll file and I don’t know how to have it,I install the plugin but I don’t have any .dll file,do you know how to solve it?

Uninstall your plugins. Reïnstall them, look where the software is going to place them. On forehand you can create a folder say C:\VST.Mark Williams wrote: ↑Fri Aug 13, 2021 4:29 pmMaybe you need to learn basics of installing products where YOU want them, not let the installers do their own thing.

Let the installer place your, and be aware only VST2 plugins in there.... VST3 have their own specific location wich you should not change.
Point Ableton Live to this C:\VST folder and you should be fine.........
