More Windows installer convenience

  • User wants a way to avoid installing 32-bit versions of plug-ins on Windows.

Because your installer installs 32-bit versions without asking, it disrupts our configuration, with the result that the unruly DAWs load your 32-bit plugins instead of the 64-bit versions. We then have to manually delete the 32-bit versions to restore the order we seek, which is a hassle.
As most plugin installers of the world simply ask if the 32-bit version should be installed or not, we would greatly prefer this.

(yet the option of not providing 32-bit plug-ins should be a good idea)
for support load it should be OPT OUT

  • also wants to install VST3 in non-standard place (on Windows)

The VST3 being placed in \Auburn Sounds is better than nothing. If a user could select a custom folder, it would be better. Many studios have plugin organizational structures enforced via folders, which is why many companies offer custom folder configuration in the installer.

A bit surprised I wasn't asked for .msi installers
