Due to a glitch on my computer, I recently had to remove Sonar X3 and re-install it.
However upon re-installation I notice that I have lost a few plug-ins.
Is their a way to recoup these plug-ins?
They are still on the computer and I can use them as standalone but no longer within Sonar X3.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thank you.

Do you know what they were? Some X3-specific installers were stand-alone (check your account for other products listed). Others were pulled in from previous versions that had been discontinued in X3 (R-Mix, et al.). Depending on how you uninstalled, if you deleted 3rd party plugins, they might need installation separately.

The lost VST plug-ins were from Toontrack. EZdrummer 2 and EZkeys.

Being 3rd party, you would need to re-run their installers. Did you delete the "vstplugins" subfolder in the "cakewalk" directory?

No the "vstplugins" folder has not been removed and as a matter of all the other plug-ins I had are still in it except for the Toontrack ones.

You shouldn't have to reinstall them if all you did was uninstall SONAR. They're probably still there, but when you reinstalled SONAR it reset the search paths for plugins. You'll just have to open the Plugin Manager and add the Toontrack folders to the VST search paths and re-scan.

Thank's, but not being too savvy in this type of operation...how do I do this?

Edit - Preferences - VST Settings, then make sure the path to the ED2 and EK dll's are included in the VST Scan Paths, if not add them, then re-scan

tried without any result.
What next?

What results does Windows return if you do a Windows search for
EZkeys.dll
and
EZdrummer.dll
?
