The path for VST plugins is in disk C,while I would like to change it to disk D. However, in order to open the settings button left below in “manage VST plugin” section, I have to first click the “VST2” botton, and when I do this, the software crashes.
Is there another way to change the path for VST plugin?
But i’m wondering about the Cubase generation used by @payphone121. Apparently, there is no CrashDumps folder, in this case, in the expected location for a recent Cubase edition.
OK. Could you post a screenshot of your Studio > VST plug-in Manager window, showing the VST plugins paths (with the framed in yellow button, at the bottom of it) ?
Great ! So now, all is about to find which VST 2.x plug-in is the culprit of the Cubase crashes. I would suggest to start from a new project and add the necessary tracks to test each and every plug-in that could be involved. A tedious work, I know…
Concerning the VST3 plug-ins paths, I don’t think that we can change them, and even if so, I wouldn’t try to do so, as Cubase expect the VST3 plug-ins to be in a precise location (I don’t exactly remember which one…). As long as you have at least 10 Gb available on your C: drive/partition, I believe that you are safe. What you can do, though, is to change the locations of the Steinberg libraries/content, if there are some installed on your C: drive, using the Steinberg Library Manager.
