Due to I was unable to download the full version of SM after my previous reinstall I had to get back to a trial version for the time being. The time ran out for it recently. Today when I added one of my plugins, which was made with the full version before I reinstalled Windows XP, FL Studio crashed with no error message, no error report, no nothing whatsoever to explain why the program crashed.

I went like "what the heck" ?! Is there no algorithms built into the plugins made with the full version to make it distinctive when an ended trial version is present? Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

There should be a primitive "Full version" that one can add to the plugins to prevent SM's trial system from hampering the usability of versions created with the full or personal edition when an outdated trial version is present. This module should ofcourse not be included in the trial version.

I'm gonna post this on the FL tech support forum as well. Link will be included when I've done that.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
