Every time I try to launch studio one, a plug in scanner pops up but never actually scans any plugins. Sometimes the software will blacklist certain plugins, one being melodyne. I haven't seen anyone with a similar problem and when I go to open up melodyne with the edit in melodyne tab, a popup appears claiming I need to install the software even though I have it installed and it's activated.

I have same problem 

plugins failed to scan 

or

blacklisted

My Fix was Uninstall Other Programs Installed on my pc which was Nord VPN Desktop App causing my problem and now it works fix plugins scan and all work 

for some reason Nord VPN was blocking studio one 4 plugins ability to scan plugins 

this was my fix reinstalling windows OS and both install and uninstall Other desktop software to find which software was conflicting 

but still blacklisting VST is so wrong and sould be removed for any daw as its a joke

I'm having the exact same problem and currently waiting on my online support request to be answered about it. It's blacklisting every plug-in and I have the path correct and everything installed correctly. I'm on a Mac
