You need to see where they are installed and make sure your VST scan paths are set to scan those locations. You could also pull up preferences and reset any blacklisted vsts and then select to scan at startup.

Shut down and restart Studio one. It should rescan plugins.
 
Yes, check in Studio One "Options" for the location settings for VST Plug-ins...

No, those locations don't need to be added to the VST Plug-ins location settings in Studio One.
Those in your screenshots are just default Toontrack program file install locations.
 
We need to see your version of this screen:

You don't need the "C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins\Toontrack" entry because you already have "C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins".

Is Toontrack and Melodyne working for you now?
 
Open up the Plugin Manager and click on "Reset Plug-in Settings". It will prompt you to restart Studio One, click Yes and wait for the plugin data to rebuild.
 
And you do not need this either:

S1 scans the VST3 standard by default.

Still locked out, Why are there no VST listing in the filter section, only Native and PtreSonus? Is that normal?

Pop up a screencap of this specific folder:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3

So we can see what is in there. Or not in there as it where :)

Looks normal. AND - did you actually follow @chichogp suggestion and nuke your plugin DB and have S1 rebuild it?

To me - looks like you have not....

VP
 
I have. The PreSonus support page / portal, appears inactive.
 
Can you do the following for us:

And finally - show us what is going on here:

Thanks. Looks good.

This issue is most bizarre in that everything appears to be fine on the surface.

I have other - much deeper - suggestions - but I think it's time for you to log a ticket with Presonus support.

I have seen some weird scenarios in my time but this one ranks right up there :)

If this were me - my next stop would be checking (and updating) the existing (or maybe non-existant) Visual C++ Redistributable libraries that the OS (and practically every Windows app) needs for correct operation.

This is going way beyond the support forum here and is one check that would need Presonus Support to preside over.

If you log a ticket and they get back to you - do let us know what they come up with - very curious to know.
