Installing the New Version of Arturia Acid V for Mac

When installing a new software update, it's essential to take a few precautions to ensure a smooth process. In my experience, I've found that leaving my security software on (in this case, MalwareBytes) doesn't always prevent issues from arising. However, I did try turning it off and proceeding with the installation, just in case.

As some users have reported, errors can occur when files or folders are locked during the installation process. This was indeed the case for me, and after a few attempts to resolve the issue, I finally managed to get everything working by uninstalling the older version of Arturia Acid V and deleting all remaining folders manually.

For those who may be experiencing similar problems, I'd recommend taking a step back and doing a clean uninstallation before installing the new version. This will likely prevent any conflicts with the old files and allow the installation to proceed without issues.

Interestingly, after uninstaling and reinstalling, I discovered that all the plugins in the bundle are indeed the same version, with V.R simply adding a new plugin to the mix. So, if you've managed to get your previous installation working, you can likely use the same files for the new version as well.

For those who have encountered GUI errors on EFX Fragments (both VST2 and VST3), I think replacing the 'Efx FRAGMENTS_gui.xml' file might be all that's needed to resolve the issue. Here's a screenshot of the error message:

Overall, while installing new software updates can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, taking your time and doing things properly can go a long way in ensuring a smooth experience.
