Chromaphone 2 won't appear in SONAR

Is anyone else having trouble getting to Chromaphone 2 to show as a VST in SONAR?  I definitely know how to add VST's to SONAR, and every other plugin in the same folder is showing fine.  I see that SONAR scans the dll at startup, but then it doesn't show in my list.  Anyone else?
 
I haven't yet tried running as admin, but that isn't my favorite solution.

Works here too. Make sure to look in the "Default All Plugins" layout. If it is not there, the stand alone version works and the Chromaphone 2 dll is in the scan path, try a rescan for failed plug-ins or a reset in SONAR Preferences > File > VST settings.

Thanks for the help and will give it a try tonight.  The standalone does work just fine.

Derp.  Nevermind...you said it scans the .dll.

Nope.  I confirmed the install location and also tried moving the dll to different vst folder locations and rescanning.

I got this sorted, but I'm not really sure how.  I ran as admin, toggled back and forth between my custom plug view and default, added a different vst, rescanned, removed and added Chromaphone 2 again, rescanned, and it worked.

I had the same problem. Chromaphone 2 added its VST in quite a few places besides what you enter in the install sequence. In its 'Program Files' area, in 'Steinberg VSTPlugins' and maybe some more.
 
I cleaned up some of these and did a Plugin 'Reset' and it appeared to be OK. Probably just the Reset would have worked.

You picked up on this first, so how about posting a new thread re the update?
 
Thanks for the heads-up!
 
Edit: Never mind. I'll do it. There have been a bunch of updates.
