    I'm updating everything to 2.5, everything is updating except for Omnisphere itself. I'm not sure how to find the challenge/response codes. Can anyone help?

    you patch plugin in these folders:
    C:\ProgramData\Spectrasonics\plug-ins\64bit
    C:\ProgramData\Spectrasonics\plug-ins (if you cannot patch this no worry)
    C:\Program Files\VstPlugIns (if you have a custom folder patch it there)

    Patching the first folder updated the standalone version, but my VST still isn't updated. I patched the .dll file which my DAW uses but still no update.. any idea what I could be doing wrong?

    Best Answer
    Directory of your plugin folder which your DAW uses/scans? Exact place? Your DAW and Windows is 64 bit right?
    Run the software update one more time, when it ask you where to install the vst install it to the desktop, then move the plugin manually to your plugin folder. When it ask you do copy over the same file say yes. Then do the patching on all places one more time. Then do a rescan of all your plugins in the DAW

    I did what you said and replaced the old .dll with the new one. Now when I open Omnisphere it tells me to copy the challenge code, but the challenge code says 'Error 634A2' as soon as I open Omnisphere.

    Did you generate challenge code in the keygen and paste into Omnisphere? If so try and run your DAW as administrator and generate challenge code again and paste it into your Omnisphere

    Hey I know that this is from a while ago but I have trouble understanding what you are saying. I select the Steam folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Image-Line\FL Studio 20\Plugins\VST\Omnisphere\STEAM\STEAM which contains also an Omnisphere subfolder when I want to update. But the update doesn't seem to be working, it is too quick and I think it is not updating. When it finishes I Open Omnisphere but it's the same 2.0.3 version and nothing seems to have changed.
    Could you explain the process that you followed again and step by step please?

    Right click on the STEAM folder and tell med the size in GB.

    By the way default location for the STEAM folder is:
    C:\ProgramData\Spectrasonics\STEAM

    I know that's the default location but the STEAM folder in C:\ProgramData\Spectrasonics\STEAM is a shortcut that leads you where I told you before. The folder is 55.4 GB.

    Appreciate you helping me :)

    This is the STEAM folder you were talking about I think.
    upload_2020-7-3_22-8-0.png

    And this is the folder it leads to upload_2020-7-3_22-9-15.png

    Looks to me like you are using FL Studio 20 32 bit version, or at least that's where you have you VST folder (Program Files (x86)).

    Also I don't think the custom VST folder is a good place for the STEAM folder. Then your DAW probably have to scan all content in the STEAM folder every time you open your DAW. And if you have the STEAM folder on your C disk anyways why not keep it in the default folder.
    I don't understand why you have two STEAM folders like STEAM\STEAM\Omnisphere. It should only be STEAM\Omnisphere

    No man I just double checked FL is 64 bit. I don't get what you are saying about custom folder since when I installed I selected the folder that was suggested by the installer.
    Do you know how to solve this and update?

    @Leotardo if you updated, and did not delete the 32 bit dlls you will get authorization errors. Get ULTRASEARCH and run a scan using Omnisphere. If you have more than 2 dll no matter what you do aint going to work. Move STEAM to the root of C:. Make it Like this C:/Spectrasonics/STEAM/ And follow instructions so it does have full permissions.

    Ok will try. If it doesn't work I think I will delete everything and run the installer again so I don't mess up.
    Thank you for the quick support this community is great!
