Bug Report: VST3 scanning issue

yes had this this morning, they all re-scan fine in Ableton and Adobe Audition

Windows 11 26H2 = beta-0.1.836 - No VST Crash Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 laptop (A few years old) Ableton, FL Sudio, Maschine VST's - short list so perhaps it is a common VST causing the crash/incompatible.

Might be a MAC thing... specify your OS and give some details. Other reports of MAC OS crashes.

it seems to crash on waveshell for me. i uninstalled waves and it worked fine.

I am also getting crashes every time. I am using al older Macbook pro (Intel). Autopilot seems to work fine (at least what i have checked so far) apart from VST scan and also MIDI mapping worked for me in al older version to a Akai MIDImix device but has stopped working in the last few releases too

As Joel says "A plugin crashes the in-process scan. Remove that plugin from the system folder, rescan, and leave unwanted plugins unchecked." It worked for me. I just deleted old unused plug-ing and worked.
