Re: Audacity 2.0.3.exe fails to run

I have now re-enabled all the services, and my computer seems to be running normally, so I've no idea what caused the original crash. If you want to find that out, install WhoCrashed as I suggested which will look at the memory dump. It's a simple as pressing a button once you have installed that p...

Re: Audacity doesn't complete conversion to MP3

whenever it is coverting to MP3, it has always created a file with the same name as the one it is converting, but with an '0' at the end of its name Yes, that is normal. The audio is first written as a temporary file with a "0" added to the name, and then renamed to the name that you set ...

Re: corrupt files?

I've never had this problem before, but all of the sudden most of my project files are missing the recordings. Most of these recordings are single tracks and the track is still there with the correct length, but the track is completely blank. In some cases were I have multiple tracks, the first tra...

Re: Tracks disappeared when I labeled the first two

Gale,thank you for taking time to answer, but the question had to do with labeling and why, after choosing a section of the audio file and applying a label, the rest of the audio disappeared. That's exactly what I answered. You can click on the link (in light blue) to find out how to label. What yo...

Re: Audacity 2.0.5 release candidate 2 available for testing

I don't see "RC1-2" anywhere, just 2.0.5. Can you explain more or post a screenshot? RC1-2.png Windows stores the last installation directory, unless you uninstall that version. So that is not under Audacity's control. If the last installation of Audacity was to an "Audacity is great...

Re: Audacity 2.0.4 Selection start not scrollable

I am trying to scroll the " Selection Start: " box with the mouse wheel after clicking on any of the digits, but it seems to be impossible. The End or Length box does allow the mouse wheel scrolling on its digits. If you mean scroll up or down with the mouse wheel to increment or decremen...

Re: Audacity 2.0.3.exe fails to run

Computer crashes are usually caused by faulty drivers or occasionally, faulty hardware. Disabling services is a very blunt solution that could cause programs and functions not to run. I would enable all services then find out what caused the computer to crash by trying WhoCrashed, which is mentioned...
