Cakewalk by Bandlab not recognising VSTs in Windows 11

[Donald Manson]

Hi there

I recently got a new computer, switching over to Windows 11. When I installed Cakewalk by Bandlab it fails to recognize several VSTs including studio instruments and Dimension, but recognises others such as Dropzone. I have checked the VST scan paths and rescanned several times, and also created scan logs.  These VSTs are in the correct place within the Program folder of windows, so far as I can tell.

In the scan log it says that Dimension, for example, is 'not a VST'. I also tried reinstalling studio instruments using the Cakewalk product centre, to no avail. 

VSTSCAN: ---- 22: c:\program files\cakewalk\vstplugins\Dimension LE\Dimension LE.dll ----
VSTSCAN: [ShortPath] c:\PROGRA~1\cakewalk\VSTPLU~1\DIMENS~1\DIMENS~1.DLL
VSTSCAN: [RegKey] Software\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Cakewalk VST X64\Inventory\c:/program files/cakewalk/vstplugins/Dimension LE/Dimension LE.dll
VSTSCAN: Previously scanned - NOT a VST plugin
 

Scan paths:

C:\program files\cakewalk\vstplugins

C:\program files\common files\vst3

I'm at a loss as to what else to try. Any help much appreciated.

@Donald Manson have you tried a reset and  rescan.

Hi

I did that before and it made no difference.... I just did reset and rescan again, after reinstalling studio instr and it worked for studio instruments!  Still no dimension however
