DAE error -9006 “The Plug-in cannot be made active” when instantiating BFD or BFD Lite on a Windows XP system running Pro Tools 7.3.x.
Navigate to C:/WINDOWS/system32 and delete the following files:
FxShared.dll
com.fxpansion.fxshared.dll
After those files have been deleted, reboot the computer, launch Pro Tools, and try instantiating BFD again.
This has resolved the error in some cases.
