How do you do crossfades/make a click-free loop in Audacity?

Great advice - except Audacity doesn’t HAVE Effect> Fading> Crossfade Clips. Look…

Your version of Audacity does not have that effect menu option.

My guess: you’ve ran Audacity2 after installing Audacity3.
Giving you the Audcaity2 effects menu, which is deficient for Audcaity3.
i.e.
C:\Users\YourNameHere\AppData\Roaming\audacity\pluginconfig.cfg
is corrupted.

Is it ok to use have both x86 and x64 versions of Audacity?

Unzip (rather than install) different versions of Audacity into separate folders. Then launch a version by clicking on the Audcaity icon in that folder. If you install two versions they will share the hidden Audacity preferences file and corruption will ensue. [unzip rather than install differnt Audcaity versions on one computer.png]
