Create a Symbolic Link pointing to the extra Plugin folder within one of the two already configured paths.

open command prompt as Administrator.
CD to one of the folders.
type in:
MKLINK /D (name of link) (full path to 3rd folder)

Now either close and reopen Renoise or simply just Rescan in the preferences window.

for example:
You are in the path C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST2
type:
mklink /D VstPlugins “C:\Program Files\VstPlugins”

First thx for your answer, but…

Yes this maybe work, but this is not a going way for me, because already fucked by SYMlinks. If you forgot you have a symbolic Link in your Directory, and you do a Delete Operation on this Directory Filesystemobject, all Content in the Location on what the Link was targeted is Lost!!!

I cant understand this Limitation? In My Reason i can do so many different vstpaths as i want. Is This really the only Workaround for this Problem? No Help in Tools Section maybe??? Any other suggestions for me?

with best regards

Every other DAW I have (Reason, Bitwig, FL Studio) allow multiple VST paths.
Unfortunately that’s currently the only way to do it in Renoise that I know of.
