No VST managing after the Early Access #4 update

I updated to the EA4/2017 and haven't been able to rescan my VST's since.
 
When I go to the plug in manager and try to rescan, there are some arbitrary new folders included (like c:\msi) and I can't get rid of them by "removing" them --- they just persist and come back no matter what I do.
 
The rescan ends with an error message while it attempts to go through those extra folders.

Sounds weird! :(
 
I think Cakewalk want you to report Early Access issues in the Problem Reports forum:
 
http://forum.cakewalk.com/Problem-Reports-f77.aspx

no, these are user-to-user forums, cake don't officially monitor here (although they do have their occasional moments of interaction)
 
use the official problem reporter https://www.cakewalk.com/...Contact/Problem-Report
 

Are you using the Plug-in Manager or Preference > File > VST Settings to manage the scan path and run the scanner?

I had the same problem, except I was able to remove the folder.  But, that might be due to the fact that I rolled back to an earlier version Dec 2016 I think. It seems plugin manager is screwed up after that date.
