    I'm trying to install Arturia's Arp 2600V vst, the first version from 2005. I have an archive of H2O's release of it, but the installer just...stays stuck. Like, it opens and just freezes indefinitely. I'm currently using windows 11. Is there anything I can do to get it to work? or if I have to extract it, how do I do so correctly so the plugin actually works?

    Does the installer H2O music play while the installer seems to be stuck? How long did you wait for the installer before you closed it's process? Maybe the installer was installing silently with no progress indicators? Does the installer process display (not responding) in the task manager? Can I borrow $20? Did you try to run the installer in compatibility mode?

    LOL

    1), no, music does not play while the installer is on.
    2) the longest I had it on was about 3 hours. so safe to say it's probably indefinite. since no installers take so long.
    3) the installer is supposed to let you select where to install the data and it's vst. it does not install it silently.
    4) if I click on the installer while it's running it says not responding. for the 3 hours I had the installer on it stayed on not responding till I closed it.
    5) respectfully I'll have to decline
    6) I did, didn't seem to fix the problem. I had the same thing happen with the hypersonic 1 installer from H2O but instead someone just unpacked it for me and told me where to put everything.
