HOW TO INSTALL (manual copy - recommended)
----------------------------------------------------------------

1. Close your DAW completely.

2. Copy the file:

       FrenchSquashFilter.vst3

   into the system VST3 folder:

       C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3

   (If a "VST3" folder is not there, create it.)
   You may be asked for administrator permission - click Yes.

3. Start your DAW.
   If the plugin does not appear right away, open your DAW's
   plugin manager and run a "Rescan" / "Scan for new plugins".

NOTES
----------------------------------------------------------------

* This is a 64-bit VST3 plugin. Use a 64-bit DAW (almost all
  modern DAWs are 64-bit).

* Some DAWs also scan a per-user folder:
       %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Common\VST3
  Either location works.

* First launch starts a 7-day trial. To unlock permanently,
  click the (i) button in the top-right corner of the plugin,
  paste your license key and press ACTIVATE. Activation is
  fully offline - no internet connection needed.

* If your antivirus flags the file, it is a false positive on
  an unsigned plugin. The raw .vst3 is safe to keep/allow.
