Step One: Instruct CbB to be more verbose about errors. That will usually reveal, or at least provide a clue to, the source of these kinds of problems.
Open cakewalk.ini with Notepad. cakewalk.ini will be in %appdata%\cakewalk\cakewalk core.
Search on an entry named ExceptionHandlingSeverity. If you don't find it, manually add it in. Then set its value to 7. It will look like this:
ExceptionHandlingSeverity=7
This tells CbB to complain about any error. The default value is 1, which tells to keep quiet about most errors. After you've troubleshot this issue, you'll probably want to set it back to 1 again, lest it get too verbose.
Hey this doesn't work anymore in 2023. I'm having the same issue. Cakewalk crashes mid-export, but yeah when I turn off all plugins of course it works, but obviously, the track version without the plugins is not desirable so there's no point in that besides ascertaining the cause vaguely. I tried adding that text in the cakewalk.ini file but it didn't change anything. In fact, the crashes seem even more abrupt now than they were before, although it's probably not related.

What am I supposed to do now?
