Sorry to hear that. Have you opened a ticket with IK Support? [Click here to do so](https://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-support/sw) if you have not already. If you’d also like other users to chime in with any thoughts, I’d suggest posting more about your setup. Windows or macOS? Which version? Any errors? Etc. ---

The latest update of Win11 stripped most of the Digital Signitures from my apps. Not sure if they intend to correct this with a future update. I just ticked administrator rights box again under the compatability tab. ---

hi everyone after trying variuos things and still getting nowhere i came across this on youtube . One drive settings -\>sync and backup → manage backup → turn off documents back up. Save changes then launch Amplitube. yip and it worked amplitube is fully working. Thankyou to everyone who chipped in ---
