Missing TH3 [SOLVED]

Just check it out and it's still there in mine under 'Guitar' in the effects drop down.  But I don't see TH3 in Command Center, just TH2 listed under the 'Boutique FX Suite'

There is no serial number for TH3 Cakewalk. If you hare having trouble using TH3 Cakewalk remove/rename %appdata%\Overloud\TH3 and reinstall the Boutique FX Suite.

Nope, that didn't work.  Reinstaling boutique did not create %appdata%\Overloud\TH3.

I use the Command Center, what ever is in there is what I am installing.

I have been in contact with support trying to figure this out. I don't even have Boutique suite show up, but yet have TH2 Cakewalk and TH3 and when I see that box is has no TH3 Cakewalk Edition. It's running in demo mode and been driving me nuts trying to figure out why. Says now I have 8 days left on demo. Want to get this sorted out in Sonar Professional before upgrading to Splat and causing more disruptions to my projects

Not having SONAR Professional, I have to rely on info provided by the . It says SONAR Professional includes TH3 in the Boutique Suite. It is pretty easy to trigger the full version Demo mode in TH3 Cakewalk. The only way I know to reset the plug-in back to TH3 Cakewalk is remove the folder mentioned above and reinstall.

Scook,
 
Thanks for the reply. Yeah there's that one and also this one in the next update: How to Download the SONAR 2016.06 Update
Open the Cakewalk Command Center. If you don’t have the latest version (CakewalkCommandCenterSetup_1.1.5.0.exe), please download it from the Cakewalk Command Center home page.
To download the SONAR 2016.06 core update, download from the core SONAR Artist, Professional, or Platinum category.
Platinum users should also download the Boutique Suite to install TH3 Cakewalk Edition (for Artist and Professional, TH3 Cakewalk Edition is included in the core program installer).
 
Funny thing is from the time I purchased Professional and downloaded it back in March of this year there was never a Boutique file listed that was yellow. I just recently stumbled on the issue when I was working on a needed guitar track. I will try to delete it and see if it shows up as needing to be downloaded again and see if it opens the Cakewalk version. Some weird goings on for sure. One other thing when the article mentions this: download from the core
SONAR Artist,Professional, or Platinum category. Does that not mean through Control Center? It should all show up in there correct? If so that's the issue as it never has shown up. Maybe I need to do a complete un-install of Professional and re- install it.

Yes, everything should be in the Command Center. References to the "SONAR core" mean the parent line in the Command Center for the SONAR installers. IOW, the SONAR Platinum/Professional/Artist line. Expanding the parent (the arrow at the far left of the line) should show several other installers.

Scook, yeah everything is downloaded when expanded. Now I have that same image as above that says
But it's running in demo mode. I guess I'll have to wait till the demo runs out and it will act normally again?

Sent you a PM about this as well, but for whatever reason when I loaded it into a track for the first time it asked me to activate it. So I hit the activate button and then it said it was running in demo mode for 14 days. This is I'm guessing the full version running with all the amps and effects. Although it says TH3 Cakewalk at the top it's loaded with stuff that I know should not be there. As far as %appdata%\Overloud\TH3 I am not even sure what that is to be honest. I am a guy coming way up from Sonar 6,8 Producer to a whole new world 
Truth is I'm getting ready to wipe out everything and start fresh in Control Center :(

You have activated the full version demo. This turns the plug-in from the free TH3 Cakewalk version to a demo of the full commercial version of the product. I sent you are more detailed explanation to your PM.
 
%appdata%\Overloud\TH3 is shorthand for c:\users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\Overloud\TH3
A folder which needs to be renamed/removed BEFORE installing TH3 again. This should make TH3 forget you turned on demo mode and restore TH3 Cakewalk. Again more info is in the PM.

Got your message thanks! The weird thing is in control center there never has been a boutique suite. Sent you an image of whats in control center. That's what tech support is trying to figure out why it's not even showing up. Will go back at it tomorrow. Thanks again for the info as it makes sense now, I'm just forgetful some times.

Will take care of that tomorrow and get it back to the free version. Baffles me how it got in there with no file to download...LOL! Waiting on tech support to sort out why it's not showing up in download of command center.
 
Thanks again scook. Will post results when this is sorted out.

Did you remove/rename %appdata%\Overloud\TH3 before re-installing? If not, I suspect the plug-in will stop working. The image refers to activating the FULL version. TH3 Cakewalk requires no authorization and does not run in demo mode. It is possible to launch the full version demo mode from TH3 Cakewalk though. It is not clear if you are really running the full version demo mode or confusing TH3 Cakewalk as the full version demo mode.

Hey y'all, 
   Not to bring up an old thread but...... after installing early access 2017.05, I now have this problem (I ended up with TH3 full version & it wants a serial# to activate).
   So.....I searched the forum & found this thread along with a couple other similar threads.
   I followed Scook's instructions as above, first deleted the folder, then I re-installed 'Engineering FX Suite' from the command center.  I still end up with TH3 full version.
   So I again deleted that folder (TH3) and this time I re-installed 'Boutique FX Suite'. I open SPlat and discover I ended up with TH3 full version again!  Ha!   

Anony, check out this thread for the answer:
