You probably shouldn't assume the rest of us are YouTubers. Urban Dictionary thinks UHC is a "difficult company to work for."

What do you think "Breaking it Down" means?

I don't think you ever got to an actual problem. What's the problem?

You didn't attach the log. Please see here for how to attach files: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 49&t=64936 .

Which version of Audacity are you using? All three numbers. See the pink panel at the top of the page.

Did you save and close the project and when you reopen it, the entire audio is orphan block files? This would happen at just over three hours of recording if your project rate was 192000 Hz. If this is the problem, see: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/File_ ... ig_project .

We can't see your computer. Did Audacity crash?

Describe exactly what warnings you see when you reopen the "wow" project. Take a screenshot of the warnings you see (ALT+ PrtScr) and attach them, if it helps.

Is all the 3 hours of audio there, or is it all silenced, or just a few pieces silenced?

Did you attach all the log, or only the top part of it?

If there was a crash but the audio seems to be correct, then just a few orphan files probably don't matter. In that case, in the dialogue for orphan block files, choose the option to "continue without deleting".

If the entire audio is orphaned (you have thousands of orphan block files), please read the link I already gave - this one: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/File_ ... ig_project .
