Respect custom VST path only! #754

Hi,

my VST paths in Element are only:

"pluginScanPath64_VST" val="C:\Audio\VST2"
"pluginScanPath64_VST3" val="C:\Audio\VST3"

The problem Element detects also plugins under Unverified > VST3: C:\Users\Xeno\AppData\Local\Programs\Common\VST3

Same with Unverified > VST: C:\Program Files\VstPlugins

Both folder here (VST3 & VstPlugins) are symbolic links only to the paths in the elements.conf and sometime Element detects plugins doubled.

Why is Element searching plugins in Windows 11 via VST default paths?

Windows 11, Element 1.0.0 b219/b222

I can't seem to reproduce this one. Symlinks could be a problem, but it'd be a JUCE problem since it does the actual loading.
