3rd Party Plugins won't install in Logic Pro X

I'm trying to install the latest version of SoftTube bundle. The component files are showing up in the components folder, under plugins, but when I open Logic, the plugins don't show up in the list of available plugins, or in the plugin manager. They don't show up in Garageband either. I have tried moving the plugins to the desktop, restarting and then moving them back again, as well as rescanning within the Plugin Manager. I have also tried installing other 3rd party plugins such as Frontier by D16 Group. Same problem. Interestingly, Red 2 EQ and Red 3 Compressor by Focusrite installed fine.

I'm running Logic Pro X 10.5.1, Catalina, 10.15.6. Processor is 3.1 Ghz 6-Core Intel Core i5, 8Gb RAM.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the plugins are in the components folder, and I restarted several times. Still no luck. It’s odd that some 3rd party plugins are working, but others are not, even though they’re all located in the same folder. I’ve checked the plugin manufacturers to make sure my system meets the minimum requirements, which I do. I’m out of ideas.
