Found the answer…  Switching out of S mode in Windows – Microsoft Support

S Mode is enabled in the Home editions of Windows 11.  S Mode prevents loading apps that are NOT available in the Microsoft Store, such as the Toontrack Product Manager.  Fortunately, S Mode can be disabled.

1. To switch out of S mode, click here to open the Microsoft Store to the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page.
2. On the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page, select the Get button. After you see a confirmation message on the page, you’ll be able to install apps from outside of the Microsoft Store.

Operating system: Windows 11

Ok.  The re-install every so often suggestion makes sense.  Thanks.

John,

Thanks for the reply.

I tried the normal approach of adding, to the VST plug-in Path List, the locations where I found the EZMix.dll file.  In this case that was “C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\Toontrack\” & “C:\Program Files (x86)\VstPlugins\Toontrack\”.  I re-scanned the plug-in paths.  EZDrummer and EZKeys both showed up as FX add options, but not EZMiz.

I then looked for other locations where EXDrummer and EZKeys files were stores.  I found them in “C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\”, but that location did not have an EZMix file, so I copied the EZMix.dll file to that location and everything appeared as FX add options.   I have to assume that this is the location that Reaper reads from based on this experience.  Is this not the case?

If you are saying that we should not copy a file into this location, otherwise we break the updater, then what is the solution that Toontrack proposes to fix this issue?

Thanks.

btw… love your products!

Same issue when setting up a replacement laptop (ASUS Ryzen 7).

Found EZdrummer 3.vst3 & EZKeys 2 in “C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\”, but no reference to EZMix 2

Needed to find “EZmix.dll” in C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\Toontrack\EZmix.dll; copy it; and then paste it into C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\ to make it work.

Thanks!
