Could anyone tell me how to do this? I'm trying to clean up my plugin list in FL Studio 5 because alot of them are not compatible with the program.
 
Or just go delete the actual files from the vst directory. Right?
 
In addition to the above suggestion, you should also go to 'add' channels, as if you were adding a VSTi or DXi, and uncheck all the DX instruments you don't want to appear on list.

I can't find those bad boys. Its stuff like Nero Scene Detector, Nero Audio Stream Renderer, Sony MSA Converter etc. I can't use these with FL Studio, so why have em pop up on the list?(I'ma neat freak)

That didn't work, nor did visiting the control panel.
 
On FL's menu bar, click on 'Channels'. Then click 'add'; then click 'more'. You'll get your list of plug-ins (DX, VST and FL's own plug ins).

I think the DX plug ins are at the beginning of the list. Make sure the boxes are not checked. If they are, they will appear in your list. So click in the box to uncheck them (whichever they are). Refresh the plug ins folder (at the very bottom of this long list, if yours anything like mine). At the next request to add a Plug in, you shouldn't see the undesired ones anymore.

then you can search your PC for the plug ins and systematically delete them. But so long as they're checked in FL, they will appear in your list although they will not load at all.

Good luck.

Umm, this still didn't work. Anymore suggestions or am I going to have to live with these incompatible plugins?
 
If that didn't work you did something wrong, it can't be wrong
 
Yeah, I meant to delete the quote about systematically deleting them. I'm trying that right now.

c-dub, This is right.^^ :) 100%
 
Well, I still couldn't erase it, but thanks for your help guys. After I thought more about it, I think I deleted it a long time ago, but FL Studio doesen't recognize it. I'm not gonna sweat it though. Holla! :)
 
Wait, let's clear this up,


From wich screen are you trying to remove plugins, the one you see when you go to "Channels -> Add one" OR "Channels -> Add one -> More"?

Okay, I open up FL Studio. The channel menu that is at the top is Channel menu that I'm clicking on. Then its Add One -> More.
 
So that probably means I'm doing it wrong then. I guess I need some kind of video tutorial (But I know this is so easy).
 
NO, you CAN"T remove plugins from that list, only if you delete the files manually.
