The affected drive is probably recoverable (once you've got the data off it) by reformatting it.

But why wouldn't it work after being re-saved to C-drive? The same exact problem? There are no issues that I'm aware of on this drive. Corrupt audio data is often, but not always, visible in the Audacity track, either as noise or as silence. When copying / re-saving a project to another drive, the ...

I'll close this topic as "solved".

It would probably be useful for Daniel Llewellyn / the snap shop, if you report the problem to them. (We only provide the source code for Linux - we're not involved with snap packages).

I accidentally disconnected my device while Windows was updating. The static is on the already recorded tracks -- there will be some data that is unaffected on a track, then a blast of static that is visible in the waveform as a huge block. It is not on every single track, and it not every project ...

I am reluctant to use "save as" on a file that is already saved, because this caused major glitches in either previous version, or the version before that. A couple of versions ago (2.2.1?) there was a problem using "Save As" to overwrite the current project. It was not a proble...

I don't know if this is Audacity doing something wrong to the system or the system responding badly to Audacity One way or another, they are not getting along and playing nicely are they.

The version of Audacity in the official Ubuntu 19.04 repository is Audacity 2.2.2 (https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=audacity&searchon=names&suite=disco&section=all). If you're using Audacity 2.3.2, then it's not from the main Ubuntu repository. Please try the version from the ...

What happens if you try to Import one of those "bad" files into Audacity. My guess is that you will get an error message. If you do, tell us the exact and complete error message.
