Need help with the Windows VST Update If you are experiencing the following error with the VST update: "Unable to get the name of the [Product Name].dat file" Please do as follows: Download the necessary Spectrasonics Updater AND Spectramove.exe. First, run Spectramove and choose to MOVE the data (.dat) file to the same location where it is currently located (this re-writes the corrupt Registry entry). Secondly, run the Updater, following its prompts. Within Windows Explorer, go to C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Vstplugins. (the Updater creates this file structure). Cut and paste the updated Spectrasonics .dll files and .dat shortcuts within C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Vstplugins to the actual Vstplugins folder you are currently using for your sequencer. (If you are using Sonar or Project 5, you will want to run Cakewalk’s Adaptor 4 again) Let us know if you experience any problems.
