What version of Windows?

Do you have \*.dmp files (for example - FxSound.exe.11692.dmp) in %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps folder?

Good evening Eddy,  
It would be helpful if you could share which version of Windows you are running, and which version of FxSound you installed.  
Also, there’s a list bannered to the top of the forum with basic troubleshooting suggestions and instructions for proper setup.  
Please run through the list first, and post back to let me/us know your results.

> Hi, All! If you’re experiencing technical difficulties with FxSound, then please run through these troubleshooting tips first. This is the most recent update (11/01/2024) of my “first-aid-kit” list, with numbered bullet points, for easy reference. A few days ago, FxSound went [open-source on GitHub](https://github.com/fxsound2/fxsound-app) (you can find [@james’ full post here](https://forum.fxsound.com/t/fxsound-is-now-open-source/2554)); going forward, when posting a bug report or feature request on the forum, it would be helpful to report the bug or request the feature through the [GitHub Issue…](https://github.com/fxsound2/fxsound-app/issues)
