    Hi ive been trying to figure out how to use the waves v13 R2R patcher for a while but cant seem to get it working in windows/ studio one.

    I uninstalled any waves related files and re installed central but it everything seems to be the same after trying to install a new plug in and later replacing the waves license engine bundle files. I re open centeral and all thats under "my products" are plug ins ive previously purchased and the new plug in is still missing a license and when opening studio one the new plug in is nowhere to be found.

    I feel like im missing something but cant figure out what exactly, Id really appreacite it if someone could help me out. Thanks in advance :)

    Hello, have you ever bought plugins from Waves?
    If so, uninstall it completely and create another new customer account with Waves.

    should i be going to the waves website and adding the demos to my account then installing and activating through central, then replacing the license engine bundle files or just install them without adding the demos through the website?

    Hello, I've never seen that before - let's see what we can think of. I can't give you a guarantee,
    but I would choose between Waves and R2R, for R2R and delete my account at Waves.

    STEP 1
    Delete waves audio account
    Log into Waves Central using your Waves account information. Go to the Settings tab. Under Maintenance, select the products/version you wish to uninstall in the dropdown menu, and click Uninstall.
    https://howto.org/delete-waves-audio-account/

    STEP 2
    Uninstall Waves Products
    https://www.waves.com/support/uninstall-waves-products
    Please use the CClaner after the deinstallation and then restart the PC.

    STEP 3
    Install - How to
    1,) Create a Account on Waves (Maybe use a different email address.)
    2.) Download the Waves Central https://www.waves.com/downloads/central
    3.) You start the "Wave Central" log in and then you install what you need.
    4.) After the installation you copy the emulator in % PROGRAMDATA% \ Waves Audio \ Modules \

    STEP 4
    Waves License Engine Emultator Only

    1.) Clean Up
    - If you have installed bad crack by VR,Uninstall Waves.
    - Remove : %LOCALAPPDATA%\Waves Audio\Waves Local Server\
    - Restart computer.

    2.) Installation
    - Install Waves.
    - Copy our emulator(s) to %PROGRAMDATA%\Waves Audio\Modules\

    i deleted everything one more time , used my avira to delete any extra files ,restarted laptop, made a new account , installed the plug ins and replaced license engine bundle files in the module folder and in the folder called "WavesLicenseEngine.bundle" thats also inside the modules folder.

    After re opening/refreshing central the plug ins still show that they have not been activated. I have attached some pictures for reference.

    Is it easier to use the VR Crack?

    Do your plugins work in your DAW?

    It should then look like this!
