Cakewalk not 'opening'

[Chris Grobler]

I've had Cakewalk for about 5 months and was totally impressed, immersed in getting to grips with the dynamics and hidden, 'awesome' features it offers.  Working 100% in all respects.  Today I decided to install 'touchdaw + rtpMIDI' and BOOM there goes my beloved sequencer! You 'launch' Cakewalk from shortcut, it opens with the familiar start-up screen and then...gone!  I have uninstalled Touchdaw, rtpMIDI and Bounjour and still the same.  Deleted Cakewalk, re-installed, still the same...

Can ANYBODY please help?

I can only suggest checking the windows log files for some indication of why the program closed. I use rtpMIDI etc without any issues so I don't see that they would cause any problems. You could also try starting Cakewalk in "Run as Administrator" mode to see if perhaps the problem is user or permissions related.

Hi Neal, thanks will check log files, have run as administrator, with no possible indication of a solution...

Just for the sake of sharing: I found a solution in Cakewalk Knowlege Base: 'My software will not launch'.

Hope this helps someone -down the line-
