Installer default vstplugins path

I want to move my Sonar x2 vstplugins to where they are intended to be installed by default, changing registry etc.

Can anybody please have a quick look to where the vstplugins folder for x2 plugins is located at and tell me? Thanks.

    The default VST path settings for Sonar on a 64-bit system are:

    C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Vstplugins
    and

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\Vstplugins

    Please note that you do not need to change any Registry values to move your plugins to the above folders.

    You simply have to alter the VST Scan Paths in Preferences>File>VST Settings, and then re-scan everything.

    Thanks, got it, but you HAVE to edit reg keys in order for updates updating correctly ;)

    Sorry - still waking up - I was thinking you were just moving stuff to the existing folders.  (heading for the coffee pot).

    All you need to do is look at the scan path in preferences. 

    Best
