  • Reauthorization of plugins after Win 10 install?

I thought I saw this discussed somewhere on these forums but can't find it. Before I commit to upgrading (eventually), I would like to know which music software/plugins will need to be reauthorized.  So I will ask here:
 
Is there a list of which music vst's/vsti's that require reauthorization after upgrading to Windows 10?
 
I already know that IKM products require this (learned from previous upgrades and rebuilds).  Which music software are you having to reauthorize after upgrading to Windows 10?
 
If there is another thread that discusses this, pardon me, and please post a link.

I had to reauthorise AD2, that was it.

Same here. Also, I don't know if it was 10 or not but I had to re-authorize GK Amplification Pro 2. That could have been a mistake on my part. It's been a while since I used it because I acquired Mark Studio 2 and it became my goto. So far, that seems to be it for me.
Btw, when you re-authorize one XLN product they all come back online.

I'm just speculating, but I suspect more things may require de-authorization than we realize. Many products allow installation on two machines, so you may be unknowingly using up your second authorization.

Do the Toontrack products need de-auth?
 
NI didn't need it (read this on another thread).

I did not need to re-auth any TT products (EZD 2, EZKeys & EZMix and lot's of libraries) after my Win 8.1 to Win 10 upgrade.

Thanks Billy. I too will be upgrading in the same path as you did. When I upgraded from Win 8 to 8.1, it was a seamless process and nothing needed to be authorized.....hopefully, this will be a similar experience.

I did not have to re-auth the few IKM products that I have (ARC, Amplitube 3 & Replika) after upgrading from Win 8.1 to 10. FYI, I have not yet tried every single installed app/plug-in/utility (over 500+), but in the last 2 weeks of daily use, I have yet to come across any that needed to be re-installed or re-authorized. I did need to re-install drivers for my Roland UM-1S USB MIDI interface and Frontier Designs TranzPort wireless DAW controller (USB), but that was it.

 I had Soundtoys and Slate trigger ask for codes until I upgraded the iLok service center.
