VST Scan is hanging on printer utility


Recommended Posts

My Epson printer just added a new utility (for me) that checks the printer connection.

Cakewalk VST scan now hangs while scanning ENSF.dll

I've searched the Plug-in manager for this file with no luck.

I don't know why Cakewalk is even looking at this Epson Utility.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

I've managed to exclude th Epson directory.  So, all is good.

 

I removed C:\program files (x86)

And then had to add the specific folders for each vendor : focusrite, groove monkey, etc.

This seems to have done the trick.  Hopefully, I haven't overlooked anything useful. ?

First only old 32 bit plug ins are in the x86 pathway. So no point in having Cakewalk scan those. 

There’s 4 ? common pathways used by most. 
The default Cakewalk folders as well as the Program File/ VST and the Steinberg folders. 
I only have a few 32 bit plug ins I kept  due to older projects and I moved those to the Program Files (64bit) VST folder.

Is the printer plugged in and turned on?

Did you try another network or USB cable?

Are you able to print the test page?

Have you tried to connect the printer directly to your audio interface with a 5 pin din MIDI cable?

Are you able to access the "Print Setup" for the printer from inside of Cakewalk?

Have you tried the printer with another application such as Microsoft Turd?

Perhaps HP disabled your printer cartridge for not paying their ink subscription fee...  ??...

But seriously, what Byron said...
