Waves Plugins

Hi,

Long time Sound Forge (SF) user and just upgraded to what-I-believe is the latest version (17.0.2).

My licensed Waves plugins now crash SF - not sure why, just need help please - I'm in a session and cannot get any of them to load. They ARE in the "FX Plugin-Ins" menu dropdown mega-menu and they DO work in my DAW. However, when I try to select them in SF, I just get errors and the software hangs.

The error message I receive is:

Problem Description
   Application Name:    SOUND FORGE Pro 17
   Application Version: 17.0.2.109 x64
   Problem:             Unmanaged Exception (0xc0000005)
   Fault Module:        C:\Program Files\SOUND FORGE\SOUND FORGE Pro 17\forgek.dll
   Fault Address:       0x0000000001866B6E
   Fault Offset:        0x0000000000466B6E

Fault Process Details
   Process Path:        C:\Program Files\SOUND FORGE\SOUND FORGE Pro 17\Forge17.exe
   Process Version:     17.0.2.109 x64
   Process Description: SOUND FORGE Pro 17
   Process Image Date: 2023-05-31 (Wed May 31) 10:12:48

The main one I want to use is the "L2 Ultramaximizer" plugin but there are few others that also just cause SF to hang.

Any help is much appreciated tech team!

@Quarterwave Try rescanning the plugin path in the program preferences and reset the complete program settings and the cache via the File menu. I hope this helps.
