when I had the BIG problem of my HALion Not loading ALL its presets, this is how I solved it.
G: is my multi-terabyte hard drive with enough space for me to store bulky multi-gigabyte files such as HALion sound libraries and many other sound libraries
I made sure that
C:\Users\JohnDoe\AppData\Roaming\Steinberg\Content
is a symlink pointing to
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content
I made sure that
C:\ProgramData\Steinberg\Content
is a symlink pointing to
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content
steinberg library manager must be LATEST version, check and verify version !!
as of July 2022, current version is 3.2.20 !!
this version proved to be the ONLY ONE that worked really well for me :)
if your SML is Not latest, you are already heading into a BIG-BIG problem and you are about to see mysteries.
feel free to re-arrange the folders inside of
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content
to suit your personal preference and taste
in my case, I re-arranged the folders to reflect that a certain .vstsound file truly belongs to a particular component of Steinberg software. for example, I managed to figure out that the .vstsound files below truly belong to Cubase and Nuendo, therefore I created the sub-folder CubaseNuendo inside of my
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content
to keep these vstsound files together as CubaseNuendo vstsound files

I managed to figure out that the .vstsound files below truly belong to Groove Agent, therefore I created the sub-folder "Groove Agent" inside of
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content
to keep these vstsound files together as Groove Agent vstsound files
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content\VST Sound\Groove Agent\Groove_Agent_ONE_01.vstsound

I also managed to figure out which vstsound files are factory-supplied files, and which ones are Non-factory (third party) vstsound files. this is extremely important because the LAST thing you want, is to mix factory-supplied vstsound files with addon files, only to upgrade your Cubase/Nuendo 2 years later and end up with a mess due to mixing or keeping Non-factory (addon) vstsound files in the SAME LOCATION as the factory-supplied files . . . which are SUBJECT TO A FUTURE SOFTWARE UPGRADE ! It is for this reason that I keep the Groove Agent Non-factory (addon) vstsound files into a similarly-named, but SEPARATE folder called "Groove Agent_ex" (ex meaning 'extension' or 'extra'). Once again in this paragraph I am saying that I also managed to figure out which vstsound files are factory-supplied files, and which ones are Non-factory (addon / _ex) vstsound files

I do exactly the same with HALion Sonic SE vstsound files. Please notice also that I do Not put version numbers or version information into these folders ! I do Not want a folder called HALion6 or GrooveAgent5 ! These sounds are usually TIME-LESS and lifelong, such that once a vstsound file has been created for HALion during the release of HALion 5, I expect HALion 6 and HALion 7+ to load and open that file, rather than expecting HALion 6+ to have its own brand new VERSION of that vstsound file, such that my ownership of the older version of that file now forces me to keep running HALion 5 in parellel with HALion 6+ !! We really Don't want such versioning nonsense ! So I stay away from putting version numbers or version information into these folders. I do Not want to have a folder called HALion6 or GrooveAgent5 and end up mistakenly imagining and assuming that the vstsound files in that folder ONLY work in HALion6 or only in GrooveAgent5, while the TRUTH might be that those SAME vstsound files may LOAD and may WORK in HALion7, HALion8 or GroveAgent6 !!

I do exactly the same with HALion Sonic vstsound files. Contrary to popular belief, the library of HALion Sonic (Not the expensive full-featured top-of-range HALion) . . . the library of HALion Sonic ALONE is the MOST elaborate and insanely loaded sound library by FARRR. It takes center stage when you compare it with HALion Sonic SE or even HALion full-featured. In fact, HALion full-featured only adds a tiny 700 megabytes of its OWN HALion-exclusive sounds (too tiny to compare with HALion Sonic, LOL).

And YES, you bet there is over 200 gigabytes of OTHER VSTSound files such as Iconica content, The Grand, and of course much MORE VSTSound files for Groove Agent ! So you are free to download more of these VSTSound files for your own personal situation and arrange them in my suggested style above.
now that my vstsound files are
1) sitting in my own custom sound library folder, on a storage drive that is more suitable for my life (enough space)
2) grouped into the folders that fit my logical way of arranging things
all that is left for me to do, is
a) to create Windows Shortcuts (.LNK files) that point to each and every one of my vstsound files
b) place my Windows Shortcuts (.LNK files) in
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content\VST Sound
NB: read again carefully what I wrote on preceding line above, do NOTTT place your shortcuts in G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content !!
secondly, the shortcuts you create {in VST Sound folder} must Not be Symbolic Links ! they should be the standard and simple Windows .LNK shortcut files, however in the case where you HAVE to use symlinks, such as people on Macintosh computers or you feel that you have a SOLID reason to use a symlink rather than a simple Windows .LNK file/shortcut, feel free to do so . . . the END result will probably be the same/good.
with my Steinberg Library Manager being the LATEST version (check and verify YOUR version of SLM !!) the mystery of Steinberg plugins NOT loading or showing their presets/sounds is completely and instantly solved ! With my solution in this write up, there is No single Steinberg software plugin that fails to find its sounds/presets. HALion, Groove Agent, Retrologue, Padshop, etc, including Cubase and Nuendo itself . . . they ALL find their sounds/presets and fully load ALL of their sounds as expected :)
in conclusion:
I do Not have ANY .vstsound files stored in my C: drive
I do Not have ANY .vstsound files stored in my
C:\Users\JohnDoe\AppData\Roaming\Steinberg\Content
I do Not have ANY .vstsound files stored in my
C:\ProgramData\Steinberg\Content
ALL my .vstsound files are stored in a custom location on my bulk storage big-tera hard drive
G:\JohnDoeCustomSoundLibrary\Content
I do Not have to double-click any of my .vstsound files (old one or even BRAND NEWLY-installed ones alike!) in order to remind my SLM to register or detect any of them ! This is possible because I am using the standard/default location where SLM looks for vstsound files by design/default = "VST Sound" folder ! The two symlinks in step 1 above, they do the magic of fooling my SLM to think that ALL my vstsound files are sitting in the standard/default location where SLM looks for ALL vstsound files by design/default = "VST Sound" folder.
I am hoping that this write up will be the LAST place on the internet and on EARTH for EVERYONE who claims that his HALion or Groove Agent or Padshop (etc) does Not show or load up ALL of its presets :)
kind regards
this is Tebza a.k.a. Kcee, all the way from the City of Johannesburg, South Africa, on the continet of Africa
