Cubase 6 plug-in paths

Hello. I’ve just restored my boot drive to a new partition. Cubase seems to work fine, but it’s very reluctant to remove the old partition paths. The new paths for the VSTs are on D:, but the old ones on W: will not remain removed. What am I doing wrong?

One plug-in is failing to remember it’s registration, however many times I add it, so I’m worrying that the two near duplicate paths are conflicting.

Many thanks for any help.
