Hi All,

I just brought myself a new pc, which i have installed ableton 9 and waves central.

When i search for waves plugins on ableton, the only thing that appears is the “WaveShell-VST 12.7\_x64”. My purchased products are definetly installed in waves central and also showing my C:\Program Files (x86)\Waves\Plug-Ins V12…

Any suggestion why this is happening? Never had this issue with my previous pc

Hi @aaronman welcome to the Waves Forum 🙂

Please note that the last version of our plug-ins to [**Officially Support**](https://www.waves.com/support/tech-specs/supported-hosts#version-9-92) Ableton Live 9 was the v9.92 version.

Since v12 licenses will authorize _v9-v11_ plug-ins if needed, I suggest rolling back the plug-ins version and rescan Ableton Live for VST plug-ins.

As v10 plug-ins might work properly, you can feel free to follow the steps in [**this link**](https://www.waves.com/support/how-to-roll-back-to-waves-v10) to roll back to v10.

Next, refer to [**this link**](https://www.waves.com/support/how-to-find-your-plugins-in-ableton-live) and follow the step to rescan Ableton Live for VST plug-ins.

If the issue persists, refer to [**this link**](https://www.waves.com/support/how-to-roll-back-to-waves-v9-92) and follow the step to rollback to the v9.92 version and rescan Ableton Live once again.

In case further assistance is needed, I suggest contacting our [**Tech Support team**](https://www.waves.com/contact-support) to advise further.
