Audacity refuses to open

Post by rpvee » Tue Sep 22, 2009 9:24 pm

I'm trying to use Audacity on my laptop (running Vista). I tried to open it, but every time I try to, whether normally or running as administrator, I get an "Audacity has stopped working" message. I tried re-installing it using the 1.2.6 installer, tried re-starting my computer, but I keep on getting that message.

Help!

Try Audacity 1.3.9 instead, but read this before installing: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php? ... s_Vista_OS
