The only thing that doesn't work is Vestige, so while I'm reinstalling I wanna ask. In the event that it doesn't work, is there anyway I can just download Vestige on it's own and replace them?
No, VST-instruments must use the stub.
Edit: So I tried reinstalling, Vestige still doesn't work (I also tried installing into my c:/ drive to no avail.

I have the EXACT same problem with the VST.
This is very odd, but now 3 reports on the same issue, so i think this is a real problem, and im afraid it could be a windows-update, but befor we enter that beastly area, i want you BOTH to try and replace a file in your installation, with a file i write here.
The file in question is
C:\Users\<Username>\ .lmmsrc.xml
OBS its named with a DOT infront of the name. That makes it special, and you cant delete it!
To remove it follow:
https://lmms.io/wiki/index.php?title=LM ... h_Settings

After you have removed the file Copy the code-block below, exactly as it is, and insert it in an empty NOTEPAD.
You need notepad! Anything else wont work ! You CANT use MSWord or anything that make page-formatting!
USE NOTEPAD -Or ofcause any real coder-tool..
Here is the code

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE lmms-config-file>
<lmms version="1.2.1">
  <app nomsgaftersetup="0" displaydbv="0" nommpz="1" configured="1"/>
  <audioportaudio backend="MME" device="Microsoft Sound Mapper - Input"/>
  <audiosdl device=""/>
  <mixer framesperaudiobuffer="6400" hqaudio="1" audiodev="SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer)" mididev="WinMM MIDI"/>
  <recentfiles>
  </recentfiles>
</lmms>
Copy this exactly as it is written here inside the code-box, and paste it into an empty file in NOTEPAD
Save the file as

C:\Users\<Username>\.lmmsrc.xml

The dot infront MUST be there!

Then shut down your pc, completely -NOT sleep!!
Wait 2 mins, and reboot
Try to load MDA piano in lmms
Let us know the outcome :)

That sounds like you have a administrator.issue. Windows-defender wont let you rename system files, unless you have administrator privileges, and that can be a pain itb !
Your other post makes me believe that it is the dot-file you need to get rid off
Try this
locate the current dot-file, and do this
https://lmms.io/wiki/index.php?title=LM ... h_Settings
Then you should have a clean slate and be able to install again, but it is recommended that you do install as administrator!
Let us know the outcome :)
