Reason File Locations: a handy reference

[pjelli]

This thread massively helped me fix Reason 12 not running and just stopping at the login prompt with no indication what is going on. VST Rack just loaded an empty generic parameter list. No errors anywhere.

c:/user/music/Propellerhead Content/optional devices, optional refills missing will bring Reason to a screeching halt. I put in a support request for help but ended up just suggesting to at least have an option to ignore, relocate or just something besides closing with no errors if it can't find those refills.

Also, why put those refills in the Music folder?? Such a strange place.

I moved my refills straight away to my normal refill directory, never had any issues except that it shows under optional install window as not installed which is not a problem for me.

I was in a middle of a nice thing and then....reason just closed...
Is there a way i can recover that "temporary file" from somewhere ?

Yes, no success

Just wanted to add this location since I was trying to do something and it didn't work because it seems Reason Suite 11 grab them from here instead:

C:\Program Files\Propellerhead\Reason Suite 11\Remote\DefaultMaps\

DISCLAIMER: this reference assumes you have accepted the default installation paths when installing Reason on your computer.




Remote

• macOS: /Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software/Remote
• Windows: %ProgramData%\Propellerhead Software\Remote
