I never tried to find a lost file, so I really don't KNOW where to look. I'd probably got look in the wavepad folder where it got installed; go to start, search programs [ in 7 ] put in wavepad, then right clik on one of the search results to open file location to search around there, for the in limbo file. best wishes kw -------- p.s. I just thought of this; http://download.cnet.com/Pandora-Recovery/3000-2094_4-10694796.html?tag=mncol;1 it may be your saving grace....please post back with results, either good or bad.

it SHOULD NOT change the quality, if you are simply trimming off some time kw

I never used that function.... maybe it was causing other issues later on in their upgrades!? [[ protect the build you love people, cuz it may just disappear , and these guys are making constant changes, some good some not so good because they have to work on a bunch of different OS...]]

thanks for posting the reminder sometimes in the heat of the moment frustration just blocks out logic

thanks for passing on the info

nice find wasn't there also a link to components? that really should be in the original...don't know why they don't include them, the orig file is small and so are the components

I had issues too with the free part...it seems they don't have it any longer. if I'm wrong please someone correct me. this thing feeds off into the internet like tivo does, and you/we are at the mercy of the sellers if they decide to change anything....it just goes out automatic like when guys using tivo ended up getting updates to software that they didn't want updated, it caused them bugs headaches etc etc etc only a programmer could remove that bit where it is calling out to the mothership I wish I was one.... it could possibly nuke the older versions someone took offline, then put back online for whatever reason and it'll change it. can anyone at the mothership confirm that the freebie wavepad is dead and gone?! [[ been away for a while, just seen PINNED at the top sez there's a link to free version, but I wasn't going to test it out.]]

why didn't you say how the post helped you?! we're all here for the info and help if we can

you may want to try 4.52 on another machine if possible or delete current version, try 4.52 see if it handles the job if it does then tell nch you need to re register in the newer version as the old is too buggy I don't know how they'll respond...they don't do stuff the way I'd like them to or expect them to. their shopping cart still can't take my visa card, but the paypal button did work....

it SHOULD give you another option try rebooting your computer first then uninstall if it won't let you get revo uninstaller , from download.com, it's free and it works, I've used it a few times recently it WILL remove it...just follow all the prompts, also when it asks you to check the bold only files, go ahead and check them only, no others and just follow the prompts

I never tried that. are you saying you are splicing together edited songs back to back and where you splice them together you hear a pop? are you magnifying the area large enuf to make sure you aren't missing some of the file when you delete? you might wanna try highlighting that area, and use noise reduction on it, or reduce volume to -200% please post back results

yeah, I don't like that bloody screen scrolling bit myself I had to bite the bullet and just work around it...but yes it is quite annoying not that the engineers give a rats patoot....they'd have to admit they messed up then eh!? if they're really customer service oriented, they'd make a switch, to scroll, on or off like the new ugly non color gray...at least they allowed us to put back the green! just don't expect much, and you'll be pleased as punch.....:-)

you always have to work with copies actually wavepad does make a copy if you change the name when you save but you have to go to file, then save as...add new name then you'll have the original, and the one you worked on but other than that, no sorry, it's lost.....[ I don't use their noise reduction, the controls are not to my liking, so I tweak that with other software if I have to ]

thanks for updating that info!!!!!

try using revo uninstaller to see what was left in there delete all the garbage left behind from your booboo then try to reinstall what you paid for using your legit key you should always email yourself the file and registration bits along with the version, cuz they don't mark them that way you never lose them, just open your email .... but the uninstaller should find the left overs...if on the offchance it doesn't see anything, reinstall the wrong software again, then launch revo and have revo uninstall it, follow all the prompts to delete the files in bold only and it SHOULD take care of the leftover critters causing you issues now reinstall your legit exe file and registration info please post back!!!!!!!

I'm familiar with the process and use that myself...I can't answer as to exactly why that happened to you you may have to reinstall the software!!! I wish I had a better answer for you....

I know the feeling...it was a while back but yeah, that sinking feeling of all that lost work...you wanna scream!!!! obviously work on copies or have copies, but like I told the other poster ya gotta work on smaller chunks , then stitch them back together and saving word brings back nightmares too....not from a crash, but an inadvertent bump to the wrong key lost all the previous typing and editing and naw, word saves way faster than audio files....no can do on audio

the only obvious suggestion would be to work on smaller parts of the file find a convenient spot to cut then make a folder for it and number it/them accordingly I feel your pain...wish I had a better answer...but that's it.

that's it!?!?!? you don't wanna share? that's why we're here ya know, to share!!!!!

you weren't too clear here do you have the original exe file or not? if yes, then just reinstall it, if not maybe you can find someone here who has a copy and they can email it to you. nch does not save old files, or so I was told... we have to keep our original files secure, burned or otherwise, as well as the registration info [ best kept in an email sent to yourself ]

sorry, there is no real quick fix that I know of mark the spots ++++ the spot til you have it exact, highlight the exact spot, then delete I doubt that will work for, but that's all I got

I hope Mike D eventually got it....I hate it when they don't post back....he might of just chucked the whole deal. I can't seem to find nchaj either...did he/she leave us too?

I just installed v- 4.52 and it works fine on 7- 64bit you may have to just use it on a dual boot setup...talking dual operating system, your old O/S for wavepad and 7 for the rest. it's been too long since I used and loved 3.05...I think that was my first....and it took 2 years to pay for it!!!!! I could have just used the free version, but I was a fairly happy customer and wanted to pay for the product.....the bloody shopping cart they use is not compatible with normal banks...probably an exchange thing, they don't know and never could get a straight answer...but yeah, two years....I forget how and when it finally went thru...I should of taken notes and saved it as a diary...it was hilarious I just purchased switch plus and paypal went thru, but the visa wouldn't, so they still have bank shopping cart issues. I use switch plus, to extract audio from dvds....I have lectures and sermons and teachings on dvd, but wanted to just hear them...on my sansa clip plus...so this worked perfect for me... you can still make it green in options like the old version looked
