Assuming you are exporting MP3 it is deliberate and you cannot stop it happening if you use your current tag editor. Some media players only work with ID3v2.3 tags and some only work with ID3v2.4 tags. Writing the tag in each format is the only way that we can get both iTunes and Windows Media Playe...

These reports became much more frequent after we changed the AUTOSAVE file to a binary (but that change stopped the issues that we had with "can't save - is the disk full?" or "can't write to the AUTOSAVE file"). It's possible there is a connection with the change to a binary fil...

If it’s of interest to you or anybody, I have uploaded “audacity-win-r13879-2.1.0-alpha-12-jan-15.zip” to Google Drive: audacity-win-r13879-2.1.0-alpha-12-jan-15.zip . Also I would love to be able to test a new experimental alpha build with WDM/KS support… Alpha builds should not be used for produc...

Returning to the OP's original proposition (emphasis mine): I use Audacity for playback and analysis, but not editing of audio files as part of my work. In this use case, the save project prompt that appears on exit is a nuisance. There is an alternative approach to resolving this "nuisance&qu...

All the .au files are there, but it's folders (d00 to d06) with a total 1560 files. I couldn't find a tool that can rebuild the .aup file, which is just an xml it seems. If such a tool doesn't exist, I would be able to write a tool which recreates the xml, but i need the exact sequence of the .au p...

One way to make the "extra clicks" go away is to make this Yes/No overwrite dialog permanently dismissable with a "Don't show this message again". I think that's the opposite of what the OP is requesting. They want Audacity to be safer when exporting. It's more or less the OP's ...
