Re: Audacity locks up when trying to save
@ Steve, yes I use Japanese since I live in Japan. However, after installing the latest version then uninstalling that because it locked up, installing 2.3 with the same problem and then re-installing 2.4.2 it's back to working normal now. This was an update problem.
