Handling Plugins in Sonar Platinum

Hi Guys
Having just returned to Sonr I have a question about plugins.

Specifically UAD plugins.

When Sonar scans my drive it puts all the UAD plugins in the plugin list.
I know that these are links to demo or purchase the plugin but as there are so many
in the list I have to scroll to the bottom to find the one I want.

Is there a way in Sonar to only have listed the plugins I own and not everyone of them.

Thank you.

Sonar Platinum - Intel i5 Quad Core - Win7 64Bit - 8 Gig Ram - Focusrite Saffire Pro 14 - Vox AC30HW2X - Torpedo Reload - Vox AC15C1 - MJW Custom Built Amp - Fender NOS56 Strat - Universal Audio and Waves Plugins - Softube - Redwirez IR's

This is because UAD installs ALL plugins and ALL dll-files. SONAR does not know which is licensed.
Use the pluginmanager from Sonar.

We digitize tapes, vinyl, dat, md ... in broadcast and studio quality for publishers, public institutions and individuals.
4 x Intel Quad-CPU, 4GHz Sonar Platinum (Windows 10 - 64Bit) and 14 computers for recording tapes, vinyl ...

4 x RME Fireface 800, 2 x Roland Octa Capture and 4 x Roland Quad Capture, Focusrite .... Studer A80, RP99, EMT948 ...

As suggested by Bristol, this is the "exclude" plug-ins functionality in the plug-in manager.

The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

The easiest way is to make a plugin layout with just the ones you own.
Ideally UAD plugins should not pass a scan unless they are purchased. Then they wouldn't show up in the list.
