I was doing fine with 2.0.3, but I thought I was missing some updates, downloaded 2.0.4 and now it crashes every time I try to open a song. I’ve looked through the forums- I don’t have any weird characters in my song file names, and there is no audacity.cfg file. I tried to follow the directions to make an audacity.cfg file in text edit and i t said I didn’t have the authority.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? I’d like to just go back to 2.0.3, but now that I have deleted it I can’t find it online.
Here is part of my crash report-
