You may want to uninstall your current version, restart your computer and reinstall from this link: https://www.nch.com.au/components/wpsetup.exe

Been there done that, for Mac though. And yeppers, everything is up to date with Mac OS 11.4. WavePad 13.09 direct from NCH DL site.

And with virus protection turned off as well.

Nothing but "Error opening the file," and then "Error loading file."

m4a, 3ga, wav, mp3...self created voice and music, commercial sounds and music, all the same.

Even when opening by choosing specific file types in drop down.

Audacity, Quick Time and VLC has no issues with them.

Thanks though.

Figure this:

I created a file, .wav, saved it, closed out the app.

I reopened WavePad, and that file would not load.

I tested again, this time saving it as .mp3.

I closed out the app, reopened it then it loaded that .mp3. It played as well as the .wav file created and saved.

It then would open my other audio files and all types.

Without going to the logs all I can figure is it was not registering the filetypes correctly at install.

Remember this is a Mac Os and App not from the store. Sometime it can be unfriendly at first.

Will work with it this eve for use in VideoPad.

Again, thanks for the help.
