"Components" folder empty

Hello


I've downloaded to AU plugins for GarageBand but (a) they do not appear in the plugins dropdown in GarageBand and (b) no files appear in the Library\Audio\Plugins\Components folder. And yes, I'm logged in as a user. Is this an Apple Support question?


FYI, this is NOT for logic but GarageBand, but Apple didn't give me the option to choose GarageBand

MacBook Air (M2)

• there are two components folder on your Mac, you may check both

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components (this is the system)

and

~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components (this is your user account)


• you wrote, you have "downloaded" the plugins. Did you install them , too?
