Audacity Forum

Please, tell us your version of Audacity (all three numbers) and Windows. See the pink panel at the top of the page. The latest Audacity version is 2.1.2 from http://audacityteam.org/download/windows . Only that site is guaranteed to really have the latest Audacity version. I just upgraded to the la...

It's normal for IESHIMS.DLL to be "missing". It does not stop Audacity launching. And correct, don't go downloading it. GPSVC.DLL probably does not matter, too (the DLL is to do with Group Policy). Could we get answers to these questions? Did you empty the installation folder before reinst...

My I offer a suggestion: Since there are multiple links on pages, it would be helpful if the link was identified as "Download The Patch", or something similar. I somewhat agree, especially given the first post is very long and detailed and the white attachment box for the download is not ...
