impossible to download extensions on maschine+

Theglove · 2025-03-20T15:45:38+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello,
the extensions download fine but maschine+ doesn't want to install them
it gives me an "an unexpected error occured" message
I have 14GB free on the SD card, I've already installed 22 extensions, but now it doesn't want to
I've checked the "download" directory on the card and the files are downloaded but not installed.

You need to post in English…

If you only have 14GB free then the likely issue is that you don't have enough space to install the expansions.

I did the same test with 128GB, same result.
I even restored the machine, still the same.
It downloads but won't install anymore.

@Theglove Sorry to stumble on this thread so long after the issue. Were you able to find a solution? Have you tried to update Maschine Plus to the latest update 1.6.1? It was released last week.

As I indicated, the files are correctly downloaded to the download directory. I updated to version 1.6.1 (so I have "flair" etc.), I started from the original blank SD card just in case, but the same thing happens, the system no longer wants to install anything.
It downloads, then "installing," and then "an unexpected error occurred," as in the photo, and the files remain in the "download" directory in nipkg format (with the correct amount of MB) and the second in nipkg.aria2 format (147 bytes).
I tried with the 19 extensions I have left several times and resetting the M+, same result? I'll see if I don't send the M+ back to the factory, because it doesn't want to know anything anymore! what is strange is that for the 30 that I installed (when I had it the first 15 days since then nothing is installed) they work well, M+ works well apart from a few reboots from time to time. I tried to copy the directories directly from my computer, but there is a file extension "metadata" which is not present and therefore M+ does not recognize them

@Theglove what SD card are you using and how much space is left on it?

Remember: You need more free space than double the size required by an Expansion to install it. If you start to install them all at the same time, you’ll need a lot of free space.

This is the original 64GB blank card

I tried again with 3 different extensions with a blank 256GB card and the same result: it downloaded fine, it installed, then got the error message "an unexpected error occurred."
