Re: GPF Zooming in large multi-channel files

I also wonder if it is because the antivirus is set to scan all files on access. That could very well be a problem. Most anti-virus applications allow you to white-list specific files. For Audacity, the ".AU" data files should be white-listed. The .AUP file should not be a problem so long...

Re: Solo button: Program and Manual

If you want to discus accessibility, you'd do better to discus with David Bailes who knows far more about this that I do. He has been our accessibility advisor for the past 10+ years and is is contactable via the Audacity4blind mailing list.

Re: Audacity 2.0.6 for Windows

The official download location is temporarily unavailable (it was on Gale Andrews' server, but sadly Gale passed away toward the end of last year).

In the meantime, you can get it from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/audaci ... ity/2.0.6/
