After Effects Centralized Plugin Location?

Hello All,
I am new to the forum and it looks like my kind of place. I have a number of video editing programs (Sony Vegas, and several corel products) that I and or my wife use regularly. I just recently added the Adobe CS6 Master collection (finally). I also have many plugins that I have been using for some time as well as some new ones not yet in stalled. I would like to know if there is a method or even possibly some additional software that would allow me to load my plugins into one central location. I realize that not all of the plugins will work with all of the programs but it would be far simpler then installing plugins repeatedly to each program. In photoshop There is an option to include an additional folder as a plugin location but I did not even see that in my After Effects options. I am running windows 7 64 bit if that makes a difference in this scenario. Thank you in advance for your time.

Although I have a limited knowledge of this type of question here goes.

Beacuse each program uses a different handler to call each plugin, you will need to install a plugin seperately into each of your programs so the short answer is no. BUT.

As I dont know all of the programs you are using and I havent used Sony Vegas, if you can use the options of each individual programme to point to an user defined directory then in this very unlikely example then yes you could. I have to say that it is unlikely that every programme you use will allow this so I have to stick with my original answer and say:

NO you cant.

I hope this helps in some way.
