I downloaded that installer. it still gives me the exact same error message stating that version 2020.11 is required. The revert program also gives me the same message. How do I get the install for 2020.11? I was able to install from File version 24.4.0.13 that I downloaded back in 4/4/2018. But that will not update successfully.

I get two error messages when trying to update. One is that the C++ cannot be found, but it is there and all my other programs that require it are running just fine. The second error I get is that the install process cannot register a DLL. Try again does not succeed, ignore moves along, but then when I try to launch Cakewalk all I get is the splash screen. Checking the task manager confirms that the program is not running. I was previously using 26.11.0.099 with no issues. But when updating to Setup 27.01.0.098 it fails. I should add that every program I have that requires the C++ runtime gives me the exact same error and I have never been able to fix it,. Nonetheless, all the other programs install and run just fine anyway. I cannot install the latest 2019 C++ runtime. But microsoft support assures me that it has not changed since 2017 and that the 2017 version I do have installed is totally identical which explains why the failure to install 2019 has no consequence. For example, Wirecast updates run just fine, Davinci Resolve updates run just fine even though they too fail to install the C++ updates. The difference this time was that the install process tried to install a Microsoft Edge component which failed.

I have had this same problem with SONAR in different versions. I had this isue in X1 and X3 but not X2. Upon export to either an mp3 or wav, the resulting exported file is about 12 dB lower. If I then import that exported file back into the SONAR project, that track plays back in the project about 12 dB lower than the project itself if I go back and forth. If I raise the level of the master out on export, then the exported file will be clipped and yet not at full potential volume. It clips with 10 or 12 dB yet to fill its potential. Somehow the translation from 24 bit in the project to 16 bit in the output is over reducing the the amplitude of the result. In the versions that did this I have never found a solution. Reinstalling - NOPE! Updating drivers - NOPE. Somewhere there is a setting I am missing.
