Missing Addictive drums since the last update a few days ago

Hi. Did you use the XLN online installer (I think you have to)? If so, did you do a vst scan afterwards? If it does not show after doing this, you might want to do a vst reset, followed by a vst scan. Check rescan both existing and failed plugins. Hope it helps.
All the best.

Thanks all- still no luck finding the plug-ins. Done a few re-scans, re-sets, rescans to no avail.
 

Are AD1 and AD2 present in the Plug-in manager's list of instruments ?
If not then check the path you added for AD's.
During the VST scan, can you see AD1 and AD2 being scanned ? May be hard to catch depending on your PC.
My VST search path for AD's is c:\program files\common files\vst2 (the XLN installer default).
Both AD1 and AD2 dlls are in this folder.

You can try it. It won't hurt.
You could also locate the AD dll's and put in that path.
They are
Addictive Drums.dll
Addictive Drums 2.dll
search for these and put in the parent folder path.

I could be wrong about the default XLN install folder. When I built my PC, one goal  was to organize where VST2 and VST3 plugins were located. I gave up on that rather quickly when I got Cubase and reverted back to letting VSTs pick their location.
I think the XLN installer lets you pick the VST folder. I also think the default XLN VST folder is the one it gets from the Windows registry and it is likely the path that Zarg posted...c:\Program Files\Cakewalk\VstPlugins
 
Regardless, either copy the DLLs as you said or find the folder where they are located and add that to the Plugin Manager search path and you should be good. Don't forget to re-scan VSTs. I don't think the standalone AD programs care about the DLL location since those should only be for plug-ins.
