Yes, for the main SL_xxxx folder it is that simple, that’s the primary program within each SDX. The problem is with the “updates” after the main installation. Mine had an update for the primary program and a midi update. According to what Olof said in Response to the question of these updates you shouldn’t overwrite the original folders created in the initial installation, but rather copy the files from the update’s folders to the destination folders that were created in the original install.. which makes sense because replacing those folders would wipe out some of the original files installed to them instead of adding the update files. Anyway, this is the way I did it and it took awhile but everything is working great now. Happy New Year to everyone, cheers.

This workaround does work, I’ve got SD3 up and running on a new iMac with OSX 10.15 with external drive but it is a daunting process.. you have to open every single folder and manually transfer every file from its original folder to its counterpart on the external drive. It’s tedious work especially with the Progressive SDX, and others I’m sure, (lots of folders) and you have to authenticate most of the midi files along the way… just pay very close attention to make sure you get every file in its correct place. First time I tried it SD3 would crash Logic every time I tried to open the plugin but I took my time and worked thru it slowly and its working fine now. Much thanks to the team for posting this workaround, I just couldn’t wait till the installer was fixed, I have sessions to do.
