Sudden change in Sib7 audio engine configurations. Hijack?
Posted: Thu Dec 28, 2023 9:42 pm
Sib7 on win 10:
"No audio devices"
"Audio engine error: Bad Settings"
Audio Configuration suddenly shows only "General MIDI (basic)"; Audio Engine options all greyed out. This happened immediately after I used ScoreCloud https://scorecloud.com/ the first time. Not a certainty though an unlikely coincidence and I have contacted them.
Sibelius 7 appdata folder has several .xml files that were dated then. The subfolder 'Playback Configurations' has only one file: 'General MIDI (basic).xml'
I tried deleting some of these both in windows and as admin on command line but they all reappear when Sibelius is started after windows has been restarted.
Registry issue?
