Further to Steve's reply, if you need to force load those settings in case the users change them, this is what needs to be set in the audacity.cfg settings file: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/preferences.html#stored .

pointing out that the .aup file and its accompanying _data file must have exactly the same name / characters in the name. currently i am once again able to open and edit my audacity file. I'm glad to hear that. It's an accompanying _data folder, not _data file. Don't rename either the AUP file or t...

2.0.6 does not officially support Yosemite. The next 2.1.0 release out soon should do so. Make sure you are following Installation: Do NOT run Audacity from the DMG!!!! . Also try this solution to tell Audacity where to place its temporary folder by specifying it in the audacity.cfg settings file: h...

No crashes, no other projects open. The error shows when I attempt to open a project from the 'Recent...' menu. If you find some steps that makes it happen, please let us know. Note that if you copy AUP files and _data folders in Explorer while the project is open, this creates orphans in the copy,...
