Installer doesn't ask for VST3 location

If you use the installer on Windows 10 and uncheck “VST” but check “VST3” (in case you only want to install the VST3 plugin, which I wanted) you can’t pick a location for the plugin and it’s unclear where it is installed.

This is part of the VST3 standard, they are installed to a default directory. See the article from Steinberg below for more details.

Thanks, I didn’t know about that since Ableton Live let’s you pick your VST3 location. It’s a feature then :smiley:
