Hi all, hope you can help, and apologies if this has been answered before - I have searched the forums but couldn’t find anything to answer my question, which is -
Is there any way of being able to have Renoise search more than two VST plugin folder locations? I currently have it set to scan my C: drive’s 64 and x86 plugin folders. However I would also like to add another location for it to scan. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance

Two folders is the limit at the moment.
However, it’s quite simple to make a symbolic link that virtually connects your plugin folders together.
Open up a cmd.exe command prompt window with Administrator rights. You can just search for “cmd” in your start menu (or via Metro on Win8), then right-click it and choose “Run as Administrator”.
From the command prompt, navigate to your plugins folder and use the mklink command:
C:
cd "C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\"
mklink /D "My Other VST Plugins" "C:\Some\Other\Plugins\Folder\"
You will now have a virtual folder “C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\My Other VST Plugins” which links to “C:\Some\Other\Plugins\Folder”, and Renoise will be able to scan your other plugins as normal.
(Adjust your folder names as needed, of course)
That’s amazing, thanks so much for the quick help!
