The plug-in registry issue noted in my post above unfortunately is now exponentially worse on Audacity 2.3.0. In 2.2.2 woud only encounter the errors when using add/remove efects, and the unfriendly workaround was to just click ok through all the errors. This was not the most elegant of workarounds ...

no lespaulplayer621, I was mistaken and evidently it’s a normal log from FFMPEG. See Steve’s last post. Well, back to square one as to any answer as to a cause. In any case, so far the workaround is to just click “OK” through all the error messages. Not the ideal fix, and it’s time consuming and inc...

Was doing some troubleshooting in my AppData/local/Temp directory and found some Audacity crashlogs and debug reports that may point to a cause of the problem. At least from my (mostly)untrained eye appears to relate to a problem loading some of FFMPEG components when FFMPEG is not in PATH. Here are...

Thanks Steve. Good to know how to set up as a portable installation. Unfortunately, it didn't resolve the errors. As lespaulplayer621 said, you can just click "OK" through the errors and after that the plugins show up and work as normal. It's just quite a hassle to have to manually click "OK" for ev...

Not sure if only occurs with VST. Guess really only other type on Windows would be LV2 or LADSPA? Anyway, haven’t had time to sit here for an hour or more hitting OK for every single one of my plug-ins, but seems like that is what it’s going to take to get all them working. Workflow comes to a scree...

On this particular PC I'm restricted to not being able to run most Windows installers so I always update Audacity using the .zip files. As usual I opened the .zip and copied the contents to my existing Audacity direct...

Capture 7: AppData folder after relaunching Audacity (After copied and replaced with older cfg files). Effects menu back, all user added effects are back.

I may need to move this topic over to Windows section of forum. Am using a computer at work which is Windows and problem with plug in registry/ effects listings happened just now. Saved a project then totally exited out of Audacity. Relaunched Audacity and checked the effects list once it relaunched...

I would normally rarely reboot myself, but since El Capitan I have been plagued by app freezes in general, particularly the Finder. I'd say unstable is a slight understatement. With no extra (other than Apple System) apps set to start at login (Disabled all third party apps from starting at login), ...

I am currently using Audacity 2.2.1 on 2014 Mac Mini running MacOS Sierra. Recently started having issue where after rebooting Mac and/or when relaunching Audacity after a crash or Force Quit shutdown (after Audacity Non-Responsive), Audacity settings seem to have reset to default settings. Addition...
