What's the computer?
Did you get the right Audacity?

We don't know what the "registry error" is.

Please post an image of this error. Command - Shift - 3 to capture the screen. Find the image on your Desktop and attach it here - see http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 49&t=64936 for how to attach images.

Thanks.

It is not an Audacity error (not in our source code).

I suspect it is the remains of some audio plug-in that you did not completely uninstall, probably an Audio Unit or VST. Please see here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ef ... ST_Effects and on to the end of the page for the locations from which Audacity loads VST and Audio Unit plug-ins.
