Have you ever installed a musical or #fx plug-in?
Are you not a #ProTools or #Sibelius user?
If this sounds like you, you may find anywhere from a few hundred MB to several GB of unwanted AAX plug-ins used by #Avid just hanging around on your system like a bad smell.
I'd check just in case. #Mac: /Library/Application Support/Avid. #Windows: Program Files\Common Files\Avid.
I found 2GB on my Mac and deleted them, but every 6 months or so I check again and due to updates from companies such as #NativeInstruments, #Arturia, #SoundToys, #Roland etc, they come back.
Very few manufacturers allow you to turn off installing certain types of plug-in, so it's worth keeping an eye on these.
