(in Private Message) Gale, So if I reboot the computer it should start working again? That sounds odd. It's not odd at all, or we would not suggest it. I tried your suggestion multiple times, but the problem persists. At some random point in the recording, the process freezes. Record button is stil...

I recommend following this document https://github.com/audacity/audacity/bl ... ompile.txt .

Git clone will give you 2.1.3-alpha, not 2.1.2. You can get the 2.1.2 code here https://github.com/audacity/audacity/releases.

I have Audacity 2.1.0 installed at C:\Program Files (x86)\Audacity (Windows 10) and would like to update to 2.1.2. I downloaded audacity-win-2.1.2.zip and want to direct it to overwrite 2.1.0.

If you press Cancel on that Debug window, there will be no saved files.

If you press OK on that Debug window, Audacity will show a dialog that tells you where it is saving the ZIP file to. It will be somewhere in /var/folders/.

Then all you have to do is attach the ZIP file.

In some cases Audacity will reference the original WAV file for its data rather than first making a copy of the data. In other words, that is a setting. Set the Import / Export Preferences to "Make a copy...". Then there will be no renaming of the original file to "old" before w...

If you updated to Windows 10 over Windows 7 on the same machine, it is essential you do what Steve suggests, even if they are USB headphones. Audio drivers can interact with each other, so all the drivers need to be correct. Look on the web site of your computer manufacturer for the latest Windows 1...
