Piotr Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Hm, trying to update I got error like below: So I tried to delete it manually. Refused as according to Windows explorer process Waveslocalserver locked it (!! ). So I rebooted to have a pure session and still didn't help... So I ended it with task manager as was sure with pure session I didn't do anything with Waves consciously... It helped instantly so thanks to such Waves secret improvements I will join soon into WUP haters club... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-53mph Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I've been seeing a lot of people on Facebook forums having problems with the latest release of CbB. Splash screen hanging, install failing,...etc. I might just sit this one out for a while....wait for the next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went to C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core and moved the file to the Cakewalk directory and then hit try again. It won't let you delete it, but it will let you move the file, and you don't have to kill any processes to do it!

abacab Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) I didn't get that message, but I had to close my browser and Cakewalk before the update would run. All good now! Edited January 30, 2021 by abacab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Shelby Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 Hey, my method worked fine...I'm ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I ran a Waves update yesterday before I did the Cakewalk update. I have v12 and did not encounter the file locked issue. I wonder if Waves has fixed the V12 bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeGBradford Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I got the problem so restarted and all was well then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcL Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I had no problems at all! Yes, but I have no Wave V12! I think those who still trust in Waves should be punished a bit, that's fair! ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splash screen hanging, install failing,...etc. I might just sit this one out for a while....wait for the next round. The issues only appear with users who have a very specific configuration. For most people, myself included, this update installed without a problem. If you have waves12 , then there is a file that the WavesLocalServer process hold open, preventing Cakewalk from modifying that file. Either kill the WavesLocalServer process, or reboot prior to install an you'll be fine. This is a bug with waves12 (that waves are looking into) not Cakewalk by Bandlab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, but, but... it is a pleasure to kill a process which is sneakily doing something in folders which are not belonging to it without any permission... ? ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane_B. Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Oh no. I saw you guys talking about Waves and noticed I had an ancient Waves Central icon on my desktop. I figured I'd check it out to see what's installed because I can't ever recall using anything from Waves. Now it's loading some 200Mb file and I can't stop it and I'm in panic mode. Just got a message saying it will be automatically installed up reboot. I think this is a leftover of some free thing they gave away 6 years ago that I could never get to install. Uhg. ??

I was getting the error message too, so I opened Task Manager and ended the cakewalk update that was not updating. I then followed Larry's advice and updated my Waves. Next I ran the Cakewalk update from Band Lab Assistant and it updated without a hitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
