      After making a vst3-file, that works great on a mac, I tried it on a Windows PC, and there the VST3 file turns up like a folder:

      When building a installer for windows using Inno, I can't add the file, since Inno looks at it as a folder and not a file.
      Any ideas?

        You need to compile the vst on Windows.

          @Simon Oki, good to know! Would a vst3-file compiled in Windows work on a mac?

            @Sampletekk Nope! Despite the deceptively consistent "vst3" naming, they must be separately compiled for whatever platforms you want them to run on.
