Thanks for the report.

Please go back to http://gaclrecords.org.uk/win-nightly/ and install the VS2013 redistributables linked to there.

You're welcome. I've locked this topic now as it is solved, but note that the version you downloaded is built with a new version of wxWidgets (3.0.2).

If you see anything different or incorrect in the Audacity interface, please let us know in a new topic.

I've already noticed that the "Save Changes?" dialogue has lost its "Question mark" icon in the new build.
