@ Jim Fogle: Thanks for the feedback.

" There should not be an issue using a fresh install of BandLab Assistant.  Your description reads as though you may have received a corrupted download of BandLab Assistant.  My suggestion is to uninstall BandLab Assistant, download and install a fresh copy. "

 I did re-download it. Still The same issue. [My problem 1&2] I have contacted support who suggested I only download and install Cakewalk via BandLab Assistant. This latest installer does not have a tick box for cakewalk like the older installer when I first installed Cakewalk. I always just upgraded. According to support, the installer is now part of  BandLab Assistant.  It wasn't very clear to me, I thought Cakewalk was missing from the installer. I have supplied a screenshot.

Both BandLab Assistant & Cakewalk installs fine and runs but the real issue is [My problem 3] Activating Cakewalk. It does not matter what I do (rebooting/uninstalling etc..) it just won't activate.

I have already contacted support to let them know it still won't activate. Will wait for feedback after the weekend.

@ Kurre: Thanks for the feedback.

" Was the fresh install from a disk image of the whole computer? "

No, it was not from a disk image. `

I replaced the hard drive in this(my brothers) machine, and done a fresh install of OS and software, drivers, updates, etc... . Everything works properly except for the following:

[1] No option to download/install  Cakewalk,  when  I ran Bandlab Assistant 5.1.0.

[2] Only the add ons were available to download/install, and melodyne was greyed out and  automatically selected to be installed. 

[3] Cakewalk does no activate/register.

I followed the recommended procedure to installing and activating but nothing seems to work. Could there be a problem when doing a fresh install using Bandlab Assistant 5.1.0?

Did anybody else experience this and is there a solution?
