Hello I can't install this in the first place, I'm on windows and all I have is a vst3 file what do I do with that?

Hi!
In case you don’t already have one you will need a DAW that can load VST3 plugins.
Then you just copy the .vst3 file to a location where your DAW can search for it. The system default on windows is: c:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\.
Now you should be able to start your DAW and find the plugin. The 0.3 version will show up as Emergence, the beta as Emergence1.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions
Personally I use reaper. It is quick and easy to install and you can try it without any limitations. There are tons of tutorials for it too!
Bitwig and Ableton Live are also popular and have trial versions that you can check out.
There can be significant differences in terms of workflow and features but you can start experimenting with the plugin in any DAW
