Program not launching [SOLVED]

Post by joaorcmelo » Sun May 17, 2015 3:48 pm

For some reason Audacity is not opening anymore.
I already tried re-installing it, but it didn't work.

It's really weird since I was using it last night and nothing went wrong with it.

We need the information from the pink band above this thread. Which Audacity? Which Windows?

Try reinstalling Audacity from the recommended installer (http://web.audacityteam.org/download/windows)
During the installation, look out for the option to "Reset Preferences" and select that option.
