The audacity.cfg created when you launch Audacity then click "Yes" to reset Preferences should scan for VST's, but it appears Audacity never got that far and was crashing immediately after creating audacity.cfg. I just tested (on Windows 8.1) that VST's are not scanned for, using that. The audacity.cfg file I attached should explicitly not scan for VST effects then load the dialogue for "Install VST Effects" (the two DLL's you saw in that dialogue are actually not VST's but shipped with Audacity). You're welcome, but I don't really understand what is going on here. I was trying to update this knowing the Microsoft support was going away.
I clicked on OK and Presto! The familiar Audacity welcome window came up. Then a window came up asking me to select plug-ins: hard_limiter_1413. After I closed the error window, I clicked on the icon and the Audacity splash appeared in the middle of the screen for a partial second and then nothing.Īfter applying the above fix, the Audacity splash screen came up in the middle of the screen saying "Audacity" (with the earphones), and stayed this time.
I did not see the plug-ins screen at all. Before this fix, I got the error immediately after okaying the one time notice window of setting the preferences. cfg, and start the audacity2.0.5 that I had already downloaded and tried to start before.

If the SoundBlaster is installed into the PCI slot, or if you remove the USB SoundBlaster and Audacity still doesn't launch, try starting the computer in safe mode.
If it's a USB SoundBlaster, disconnect it and see if Audacity launches. If that does not help, what language do you have "Format" set to in "Region and Language" in the Windows Control Panel?Īssuming your reference to "SB" means Creative SoundBlaster, that could be the problem. This will reset preferences but also disable Audacity scanning for VST effects. In the "Audacity" folder inside Application Data, delete the file "audacity.cfg" if it exists, then paste in the attached file renamed to "audacity.cfg" (without quotes). ows/#winxp to show hidden files and folders. If you don't see the Application Data folder, follow the steps at.
