Error installing DXV Plugin

Post by pestopasta »

Hey people, whenever I try to reinstall Arena, I get an error saying
"Cannot create directory for the Resolume DXV Adobe plugins Installation will be aborted"

I have the adobe suite installed on a different drive than Resolume, which automatically installs on drive C. Could that be the problem?

I don't want to render everything twice via alley if possible..
Thanks for any help!

Yes, sounds like the folder the installer expects to be on c: is on your other drive.
The Resolume installer doesn't try to create this folder, as it already should exist.

Depending on the Adobe version you have, there should be a Program Files/Adobe/common/plug-ins folder. with some subfolders for the plugins. Try copying this folder structure from your installation drive to the C:/Program files folder, then try re-installing Resolume. This should place the plugins to the folder on drive C: and you can copy them back over to your installation folder.
