Full clean install, and XLNs AD2 and AKeys don't have the same plug in window as before It's missing. Also when I tab between screen out of sonar, the plug ins float on top, whereas other VSTs do not.
 
Is this a setting I can change. Can I fix this, I should I reinstall

When I load up a 32 bit plugin, the header look like the one on your picture of the AD2 plug.  And they appear like other programs (by themselves) when I Alt>Tab to select other programs.  It look to me like the AD plug you loaded is the 32 bit version maybe?

Some how 64bit SONAR is picking up the 32bit XLN plug-ins. Bitbridge does not display the standard VST header in the same window as the plug-in UI.

It does list them as 32bit in the menus, and no 64 bit is listed. I treid to be minimal on this install, and chose custom installs with 64 bit only. I must have cocked up. I blame beer of I did this late at night, or coffee if in the morning.
 
I guess uninstalling and reinstalling is my only option.
