we need you to post your:
* Name of your Operative System (Windows/ Linux/ Mac) And subtype ('Home' 'Mint' '10.13' aso)
* lmms version
* lmms sound device chosen
https://lmms.io/wiki/index.php?title=LM ... o_Settings
* hardware specification (ram & soundcard is the most important)
Hello, my operative system is windows 10, my lmms version is 1.2.1, sound device chosen is nothing, I dont know what to put there. My hardware specifications are: graphics card: Gtx 1060 6GB, 16 gb of RAM, 512 GB SSD and 1TB HDD, i dont know what soundcard i have.

I linked you to the article that explains what you need to look at
Here:
https://lmms.io/wiki/index.php?title=LM ... o_Settings
Go there, and now that you have told us that you have windows 10, then the correct Audio_Setting is SDL
Try that
Also, after you have chosen SDL and restarted LMMS, then now we can do a test for VST-support! For that DL. MDA-Piano http://mda.smartelectronix.com/synths.htm
It is very small in size, and you can just copy its dll to your VST-folder. Further its a quite good piano-instrument, so it is a win win
Load that in the green folder, and hit a key
Let us know the outcome !
Hello,

I had it set to SDL before but it still does not work. when I click on open in vestige, nothing happens.

When you say 'nothing happens' does it mean that you dont even get a dialogue?
I have just made a video on basal VST-usage.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V60j4ZXiyZ8&t=2s
Follow that
Take screenshots if you get any different dialogue or error messages
Let us know the outcome :)
No, When I click on open the screen where you can select vst plugins goes away and then just nothing happens.

I think the dialogue is opened outside your view.
Thy and look in windows-tray (alt´+tab)
If there is a new item there, select that
You should not have any issues at all in win10 :?
Nope, it still says no vst plugin loaded in vestige

Its leaning towards a VST that dont 'like' LMMS
But you wrote "Some VST" -So more than one?
What is its name and where (link) did you get it from?
