Idon't know about all plugins, but in the case of old Astute Graphics plugins you can find them in the "Apps & Features" panel of the Windows Control panel (Add and Remove Programs in System Settings). Might be worth a look.

As you've checked "My Exchange" and not found anything, I'm guessing that means neither Adobe Extension Manager CC and nor Anastasiy's Extension Manager will be any use either. But if you're desperate...


Hello, how are you doing today? I have new MacBook o laptop and I will need to transfer all my Adobe creative suite programs, plug-ins, preferences, workspaces to my new laptop from my old laptop. The older laptop has all my older version of my programs, plug-ins, etc. that I want to keep and use in the newer versions. The transfer is what is preventing me from using my new laptop. I never have done this before and I am just really confused with the process. What I am asking for help is if anybody can please explain to me where I need to look to find my plugins, preferences, workspaces so I can export them a and import them into the new laptop? Also, would I have to install the plugins again on the new computer? I would appreciate it very much. I am going to have to do this for each program now. I wish there was a way when you install the new versions that it would automatically transfer your previous settings you used before using the same account.


Migration Assistant works well if you're going from Intel to Intel or Apple Silicon to Apple Silicon; however, some third-party plug-ins may recognize that you are on a different machine and require that you authorize again the first time that you use them.


You're probably migrating from Intel to Apple Silicon. For this, Migration Assistant is fine for files and documents, but do not use it for applications. Do a clean install of Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop, After Effects, and any other Adobe applications that you'll be using. You can be signed in to your Adobe ID on both laptops while doing this (the limit is two activations). Then go through your third-party plug-ins, add-ons, and extensions, make sure they are compatible with Apple Silicon, and install and authorize those. You may need to de-authorize or sign out of the plug-ins on the old MacBook before using them on the new one.



As far as After Effects settings go, you should be able to use Sync Settings (After Effects > Sync Settings) to sync them to your Adobe ID (if you're not already doing so) and then sync them to the new install of After Effects. If for some reason that does not work as expected, you can try copying over the corresponding files or set them up manually.



You should be able to copy scripts over to their corresponding location manually.






For me, I prefer to manually back up my files on my computer and not use migration assistant because I need to have more control over what files get moved since I am a designer. I would rather go through each file one by one using my external hard drive and keep a record of it than rely on a computer to keep track.


Currently the plugins will not show at all in Premiere, but do show in Audition. I would have expected that they shared the same engine when it came to scanning and registering VST and Audiounit plugins.


In general, we no longer try to scan third-party audio plug-ins on every launch because there are too many bad plug-ins out there that could crash the application or have 30,000 nag screens for dongles and such.


Also, which version of Audition are you comparing against? If it is Audition CS6, then there will be 32-bit plug-ins that show up there, but won't show up in Audition CC or Premiere Pro CC as both of those are 64-bit apps and cannot natively load 32-bit plug-ins.


If I understand well, the recommended location for plugin installation is now C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC. However, plugin installers are supposed to look at the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Photoshop\ PluginPath registry value in order to determine in which folder the plugin should be installed. And this value is still pointing to the "old" location (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC \Plug-Ins\), even for the latest PS CC versions. So many plugin developers continue to install in the old location.


I'm talking from a developer's point of view. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC is the new common folder recommended by Adobe where PS plugin installers should store their modules. All my plugins are installed there. Some because I moved them to this folder manually, others because the plugin installer correctly copied the plugin modules to that folder.


No that is where Adobe Camera Raw is installed. On Windows the default folder where Plug-in are installed depend on which version of Photoshop you are running. Every version of Photoshop has their own plug-in folder. And your plug-ins need to be install into every version of Photoshop you use. Adobe installers do not migrate your Plug-ins into new versions of Photoshop. When Possible I install Plug-in in my own Plug-in threes the are two a 32Bit tree and a 64bit tree. I link Photoshop version Plug-in folders to my plug in folders so 32bit install all use the same 32bit plug-in and all 64bit installs use the same 64bit plug-ins.


The code of the plugin installer should look at the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Photoshop\ PluginPath registry value and that value should reflect the plugin path for the installed version of PS.


From a developer point of view that is one of the common shared plug-in folders that Adobe applications like Bridge, Photoshop and maybe other share common plug-ins. The are sub folders for Adobe software versions. if you follow the tree's paths you will see currently only Adobe Camera Raw raw plug-ins are installed in there. The Plug-in folder you show is foe 64Bit Plug-ins. Third Party Plug-ins are not installed in there. Ther are many Plug-ins folders and I doe not know the exact search orders Photoshop and Bridge versions use. I link my plug-ins folders to Photoshop version normal tthird party plug-in folders


Actually, I'd like to obtain accurate instructions from Adobe about this. This a very messy situation. The PS SDK doesn't provide any information about what should go where (unless I missed something obvious).


I hope you get one from Adobe. Users here do not have access to Adobe Code. No matter the search on windows will vary between installs. There is a 32Bit Photoshop Install and a 64Bit Photoshop install and each Photoshop version install has plug-in folders the that are only used by that version's install they are not shared between versions. Folders may contain the same file in different versions of Photoshop but the folders are not the same file are not shared between version. except for Adobe Camer Raw and still there four version of Adobe Camera RAW.


I installed Adobe Audition CS6, and VST plugins and VS3T don't appear in Effects Windows, only the names VST and VST3.

I've been in "Audio Plug-in Manager" and selected the folder where the plugins are "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Audition CS6\Plug-ins\VST3" and "Scan for plug-ins" and don't appear in the "Available Plug-Ins".

This situation is normal?


However, you need to "force" AA to rescan all your plugins. First, check that the "plug in folder" list in Audio Plug In Manager is correct and complete. Then, in the same screen choose "Scan for plug ins" with the "Rescan existing plug ins" checked. This may now find and reload all your existing plugs. In my case, it found some, but not all. So I reselected "Scan for plug ins" bu


Most VST plugins that install don't go where you said at all - that's just the location of the built-in plugins within the software itself. The default location for ones you install yourself is in C:\Program Files\Steinberg\vstplugins. Make sure that you are scanning this location first, and report back if they aren't there...


Those are the internal effects found in Audition and shouldn't be located in the shared VST folder. You'll want to make sure those exist only in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Audition CS6\Plug-Ins\VST3\ Either move them back, or verify they are already there. These aren't compatible with other audio applications and will need to remain in their original, installed location to function properly.


I move all the plugins to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Audition CS6\Plug-Ins\VST3, changing the path to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Audition CS6\Plug-Ins\VST3" and search with "Scan for Plug-ins", but the problem remains.


I think there might be confusion happening here. Audition ships with a collection of plug-ins all of which are available under the Effects menu. These are broken into groups like Amplitude and Compression, Reverb, Echo and Delay, etc... You don't need to scan plug-ins to use these. (The screenshot below was taken on a Mac computer, but the menu should look very similar.)


In addition to the built-in effects, Audition supports VST and VST3 plug-ins. These are plug-ins that you would have purchased or downloaded separately. If you have already installed separate VST plug-ins, please let us know which ones you expect to see when scanning and we can troubleshoot. If you haven't yet installed any, there is a great list of free VST effects at -90-free-vst-effects-plugins/ You should be able to download and install some of those, then perform a scan in Audition to make them available for your editing.
