Optional plugins CS5? Any problems with loading all of them?

John Nez Dec 12, 2010 10:51 AM

I'm wondering if there is any downside to loading the sets of optional CS5 plugins and extensions?

I downloaded the Optional plugins CS5 install DMG utility, but looking through all the options I got confused and wondered if I'd regret loading the entire package.

I only want the pattern maker utility for now... and I'm wondering if all the other features might need to be deleted if they become problematic.

It looks like the utility just loads in all the plugins and extensions all together.

Thanks for any clues..

Yeah - because several of the extensions could hurt your performance, or contradict one another.

The filters and formats - no problem.

But you're supposed to pick which of the extensions you actually need (and most people don't need them).

Thanks! I guess the installation instructions lead one to believe that all the extensions and filters will all load. So I'm glad I didn't load them, since I don't want to have to go through and delete the unneeded files one by one.
