I don't use 32-bit Reaper... but it doesn't happen in 64-bit if I disable "embed bridged GUI"... which I don't want to do. Naturally, it wouldn't happen in 32-bit Reaper because Elektrostudio plugins are 32-bit, and do not have to be bridged. In any case, versions prior to 4.41pre1 loaded those plugins without fault, with embedded GUI and all.
