    I just grabbed Moria's Izotope Dialogue Match from the sister site which I was very excited about. The install process was simple and the .aaxplugin file was added to the correct folder where all my other PT plugins are located. However, PT is behaving as if I never installed anything. Nothing I am doing is working. I have restarted the system, I have uninstalled the Dialogue Match plugin and re-installed, I have deleted the PT preferences. Nothing is making any difference. Could it be a license issue? If that were the case, I feel like I would receive some kind of notification.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for getting PT to find a .aaxplugin file? I am at a loss here.

    That's why you can't see those aax. Legit protools can't use modified aax.

    Side note: your thread title could have been more precise.

    I didn't know that . Another good reason to use your sister's PT.

    But my PTs is loading up other cracked izotope plugins although it does still ask for authentication when I open those. But it at least does see them

    You answered your own question. They are being loaded, because they were not modified, / not cracked, that's why they ask for authorisation.
    The way to crack an aax that would work with legit PT is to generate a license without touching the plugin itself.
    If I remember well R2R have done this sometimes.
