The plugin count for my X3e Producer Edition License was 63, according to the scan at every start up.
The "plugin count" included the original license and two after market products...iZotope Ozone5 & iZotope Alloy2.
I updated to the latest revision for Alloy2...so "no" additional plugin would be added.
I purchased the ProChannel Concrete Limiter...so "one" additional plugin "should be" added.
My "new" plugin count should now be 64.
At first the new count was 65, and I thought, that can't be right.
Then I rebooted and the scan revealed 62.
How did I lose two plugins?
SOLUTION:
I "reset" in "Preferences/VST Settings".
Now the new count is correct...64. What was odd was before it finished, the scan revealed 74 plugins, of which 70, were listed as new.
But, before it finished it continued for a few more milliseconds and then finished with a plugin count that agreed with what my expectations were...64.
