Where can I find the VST plugins directory (PC)?
This depends on your host installation. Steinberg hosts often use C:\Program files\Steinberg\VSTplugins. You can also take a look at your host's directory configuration. Another way to find it is to use the Windows file search function. Search for 'firebird.dll' or the plugin of your choice.

Where can I find the VST plugins directoryx (Mac)?
You can find it here: /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST

Where can I find the AU (Audio unit) plugins directoryx (Mac)?
You can find it here: /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components

The plugin is detected from my host software but the GUI does not show up?
You did not copy the keyfile with the right name to the right place.

The plugin is not detected and listed in my host software?
You need to do a plugin rescan in your host software.

I have copied the keyfile to the right place, but i still can’t see the GUI?
The GUI resize handling of some hosts is buggy (Sonar 5 and others). You need to do a plugin rescan in your host.

What elso do I have to know?
Do not change the numbers within the keyfile. Hacking keyfiles is illegal. The plugins do not work with modified ones.
Do not distribute your keyfile. Giving keyfiles to other persons is illegal. Keyfiles which are 'leaked' will be locked.

I have copied the keyfile to the right place, but my host software still can’t find the plugin?
1) Install the full version of the plugin
2) Copy the keyfile to the right place
3) Start your host software
4) Rescan the plugins
5) Restart the host software
