Vst is black-listed

Questions
1

Hi,
Probably I missed the point.
I am running the extension vstplugin v0.5.4 on SC 3.13.0 and on mac osx 12.7.2.
How can I solve the following black-listed plugins?

-> VSTPlugin
searching in '¨~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST'...
found 0 plugins
searching in '/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST'...
'/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/ATKCompressor.vst' is black-listed.
'/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/ATKTransientShaper.vst' is black-listed.
'/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/ATKTransientSplitter.vst' is black-listed.
...

Thanks,
Y.

What’s the console output of a clean search, e.g. after VSTPlugin.clear?

VSTPlugin.clear;
VSTPlugin.search(s);
------------
// Post window
waiting for '/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/ATKCompressor.vst'...
// then I get the popup (see screen capture below) ...
// so whatever I choose "Show in Finder" or "Cancel" the console output:
probing /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/ATKCompressor.vst... couldn't load! Operation not permitted [1]

Go to the terminal and run:

xattr -cr “the folder where the plugins are”

This should get those plugins out of purgatory.

This is mentioned explicitly on the release page!

EDIT: Ah, the release page only talks about the extension itself, but doesn’t mention VST plugins. I need to be more explicit!
