ImageThis forum is for Audacity on Windows.
Please state which version of Windows you are using,
and the exact three-section version number of Audacity from "Help menu > About Audacity".


Audacity 1.2.x and 1.3.x are obsolete and no longer supported. If you still have those versions, please upgrade at https://www.audacityteam.org/download/.
The old forums for those versions are now closed, but you can still read the archives of the 1.2.x and 1.3.x forums.

If all else fails, try reading the instructions ;)
The plug-in includes three short help screens that should answer most of your questions. If anything in the instructions is unclear, please ask.

By the way, (this is of no use for your immediate needs, but you may be interested) I agree that a built-in method to align tracks end-to-end would be extremely useful. I'm just starting to learn how to program in C++ and I've just written a modification that adds this functionality. It is not yet publicly available because the code needs to be "compiled" into Audacity, so currently it is only available for users that are able to build Audacity from the source code. I'll start a new forum topic about this modification, and if enough people think that it is worthwhile then perhaps it will be included in the next release version.
