For about a year now I have used the plugin Xpand!2 with Mixcraft, it is the primary instrument plugin that I use.
Without explanation it has suddenly stopped working. I had noticed when switching to that instrument in the <VSTi Instruments> list. Although it showed up, the "Show Details" section was without preset category and it's Show button. I had tried to restart Mixcraft in order to fix this, and it is now gone from the list entirely.
I have not updated or touched any files that I believe could have caused this, as I'd only just woken up and the plugin worked just fine before I had slept. At first I considered reinstalling the plugin, however the installer for Xpand!2 seems to not be functioning either and I am nervous about messing with that rather than finding what caused Mixcraft to no longer recognize it properly.
(As seen here, it is still here and being detected but is not loading.)
Here is a selection from the log file if it's required:
