Program Shuts Down

Post by DaveM4964 » Sat Oct 04, 2008 11:09 pm

I get this message "Runtime Error!" R6025 - Pure Virtual Function Recall".
This happens everytime i click on "Start Metering" before i began recording.

Was that all of the message?
That error message usually come with a bit more information, like:

Code: Select all

Runtime error!
Program:c:program filespathfilename.exe
R6025
pure virtual function recall
It usually indicates that the program associated with "filename.exe" needs to be completely removed and re-installed. It's not an error that I've seen very often, but it seems to be associated with programs that have become corrupt, or perhaps cracked versions of programs. (it's a C++ run-time error)

I presume that you are using Audacity 1.3.5 downloaded from the Audacity web site?

Yes, thats all of the message. After the message appears it gives me the option of sending an error report to microsoft.
I am using 1.3.5 that i downloaded from Audacity. This never happens when i use the older version.

You could perhaps have a corrupt download of Audacity, in which case you should uninstall, manually remove the audacity.cfg file, download Audacity again and re-install.

Alternatively it could be a conflict with another program.

What is the file name in the message? That may give a clue where the problem lies.

Is this problem with a clean install of Audacity, or have you also installed some additional plug-ins?
