It dug up a few I had missed and I still had to go through each and every likely and unlikely folder to make sure I got everythoing.
|AWaves has a nasty habit of randomly using Program files (x86) as an install location for 64 bit plugs for instance.
You are going to love Waves Central once you get your system clean and the new stuff installed.
I have had zero issues since doing this.

Hey Ivan
Waves puts folders and files in..
Appdata\Local
Appdata\Roaming
Program Files
ProgramData
Users\Public\Public Documents
Program Files\Common Files\VST3
Program Files\Common Files\WPAPI
Program Files\Common Files\Digidesign
..on my system. I haven't found anywhere else.. Do you have any locations to add to that? I also clean the registry of any Waves references I can find between installs. I used to have Iobit installed a few years back.
