Cakewalk changing the default VST plugin installation path in Windows in Cakewalk by BandLab Posted April 20, 2022 · Edited April 20, 2022 by Viraj Alankar Awhile ago I tried Cakewalk and then uninstalled it. Since then, all new plugin installations were defaulting to: C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\VstPlugins Since then I have found the registry key (I think): Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VST\VSTPluginsPath But my question is, why in the world did Cakewalk do this? For anyone evaluating the software, please don't do this in future releases! 2
