How do I completely uninstall my plug-ins?

Windows

When you install PROCESS.AUDIO plug-ins, an uninstall.exe file is automatically created.

This file will be located here:

C:\Program Files\ProcessAudio\MY_PLUGIN_NAME\Uninstall\unins000.exe

You can simply execute this file directly or do it via the Control Panel.

Manual Uninstall (Windows)

If you would like to do it manually (which we do not recommend), you can delete the .dll files from:

  • C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins — VST2 (64-bit)
  • C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 — VST3 (64-bit)
  • C:\Program Files\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins — AAX

macOS

To uninstall the plug-ins from a Mac, you can just delete the specific PROCESS.AUDIO plug-in files at the following locations:

  • /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/ — AU
  • /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/ — VST2
  • /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/ — VST3
  • /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins — AAX
  • /Applications — Standalone (if any)
