Based on previous posts on this topic, there may be an XML file in the ..\Command Center\Cache\products folder that stores the file names that CCC is "aware" of.  Perhaps adding the manually copied file names to the right location in this XML file will allow CCC to see them?  Not at my DAW at the moment so am just going from memory.

Interesting, Steve.

Check this out.
If you have the 32bit version installed, the Sonar button stays yellow until the 32 bit version has also been updated manually. I saw this behavior in both of the recent updates.
It appears C3 acknowledged the presence of the 32 bit version, but it can't do anything about it.
I'm not complaining. C3 is letting me know I'm not done yet. It's still easy.

Robert that is very useful information.

Copy that, John. I think C3 may be a lot smarter than it's letting on.
i am anticipating an evolution much like we saw with the X series. I think the new scheme of things holds a lot of potential, and C3 is going to be an integral part of that.

I only download the files So I have copies (backups) of everything Platinum. Then I save them. All the updates, etc.
I have always (always being since jan 16, 2015) used C3 to update things. Never a problem.
 
Right now the backup folder (install files, read mes, XLN inst, etc) I save externally for Platinum is 9.47GB-that's all of it (well not DP, Rapt, etc)
 
I would have thought everyone wanted backups of the install files. I always do.
I just ignore the red lights on dim pro,Rapture, Melodyne (I have the full editor)

Thanks Tom. I didn't really expect it to, but was hoping. The Command Center seems like a good idea, but it needs work.

Okay... I received Platinum as a gift, and after seeing all the CCC hubbub I opted to simply redeem it and manually install everything. The only glitches thus far was that the Boz and IR installs downloaded with no extension, so I simply added a ".exe" to them and they installed fine (they are installation files).
 
As I watched DimPro doing its thing, I was concerned that it had undone what I had done, so immediately checked the C drive and no multisamples were loaded. I then checked what I had done with X3 and the registry was unaltered. For those interested, I had physically moved the multisamples to a HDD and changed the registry pointer accordingly.
 
Registry key altered -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\dp
 
Only parameter changed (pointing to where I move the Multisamples) -
"Multisamples Folder"="F:\\Cakewalk Content\\Dimension Pro"
 
So far, CCC has been left completely uninstalled. I may leave it this way until it matures, but Platinum does not warn me of "demo mode" and so far I have seen nothing awry.
 
Edit: I spoke too soon... the second launch of Platinum says it is in Demo mode, lol

Did you do the offline authorization?
There have been a few threads where support had to fix an issue.
