Subject:Moved VST folder contents - projects won't load

I had been using the default c:\program files\VSTPlugins directory for ACID (even though my default VST directory was somewhere else).

I just cleaned up/combined everything into 1 directory structure - fired up ACID and then tried to load my most recent project and ACID hangs at either 13% complete or 99% complete and takes my CPU up to 100%. (w/o actually updating the screen with any project-specific track info, bus changes, time/tempo info etc.).

I can create/play a new project, add/remove FX etc. but I can't load any of my existing projects.

Please please please help me!

Have you tried re-selecting/scanning the new folder in Options->Prefs->VST Effects?

Yea, I've tried removing the folder entirely. I've tried reconstructing the original folder contents as close as I can.

Don't know what else to try. Re-install ACID? Would that do anything?

I rebuilt my DAW and now the project loads. Weird.
