I downloaded a new VST plugin for live and so I went to Preferences to scan for it. By accident i started scanning my Program Files(x86) instead of VSTplugins, this caused ableton to shut down. And now when I try to start it up again and Ableton is scanning VSTs it is being currupted by the amount and type of files that it has to scan. Therfore it wont open and shuts down before acctually pulling a set up. I have tried reinstalling the program and even moving files from Program Files. But it hasn't worked. can I stop the scanning or change the preferences without opening it? Windows Vista, intel 2 duo core, 4GB, 64 bit.
