Charlie,
The usual method is to uninstall and start over --- X1->X1A, for example.

I had the same question here and I tried JUST an overlay of the original X1 install WITHOUT un-installing X1 first. Everything appeared to install OK , but in reality my version is Still at X1B. I WISH I had done an acronis backup first before applying the X1B patch .. live and learn. BTW thanks for the PM , but your suggestion doesn't resolve my audio interface issue, I have to actually make any kind of change in the dialog to "reset" the audio .

Charlie - you should look into a couple of things: 1- using System Restore to create restore points on the fly (available in Xp, Win7). 2- Look into programs like Acronis True Image where you can create full images of your system anytime and therefor have points to go back to (restore) when necessary. Those are some ways to mitigate the time issue and headaches. Unlike mr. StarTekh, I don't wear rose colored glasses ;) Sh*t, er stuff happens :O

I've had a few very bizarre issues since X1b. This afternoon one of my projects track views wouldn't respond to the mouse or keyboard. I could start play with my MCU but not stop it. The CV was responding fine to mouse and keyboard and if I closed the multidocked CV I could re-open it via Alt+2. In fact all the Alt shortcuts seemed to be working as were screensets. No menus were available either via keyboard, mouse or control surface. I could stop and start play with my multimedia buttons on my qwerty keyboard. Some options such as save were available via the MCU but I couldn't swap windows. It was almost like the CV had somehow got exclusive focus and wasn't letting go. Eventually I closed X1 via the task manager and it closed normally, even asked me if I wanted to save changes.  I re-booted and the same project was fine for the next 3 hours until I closed it. I was more confident with X1a than I am X1b, I seem to be getting a few issues. I guess that'll teach me to spout on about how I didn't have issues with X1a.

Jon, You and I live in very different worlds, I think. There are legitimate users with legitimate problems. You and I may or may not experience those problems. That doesn't mean they don't exist. There have been countless bugs fixed that only a few have run into but turned out to be real bugs. There are bugs NO ONE has found but needed fixing anyway (the Bakers found them). But, I also take the approach that just because I may not run into someone else's bug(s), I still try to have compassion and respect for them. To call much of this "bad hype" is very disrespectful to those having REAL problems, in my opinion. Just to say "I don't have any problems" serves NO purpose to those having problems and is a bit self-serving, imho. So I just take a different approach to all this (and life I think) then you, I think.

There is a way without doing a full uninstall/reinstall. Noel discussed it on a post over a year ago. I'll see if I can find it.

Same here (different issues, but 'weird' ones indeed). IOW, random strangeness. Funky playback (sometimes the system would "wait" before actually playing back") or - similar to you - strange behavior issues. I just dunno where this is all going, frankly. I said in another thread that I'm seeing something strange in the PRV. I hope to detail it tonight and get a bug report up IF I can get a very solid recipe. It has to do with editing velocity when using the controller pane (ie, so the velocity shows down there) - and not being able to select ONE note by itself (ie, trying to edit the one note causes other notes to be affected even though they are NOT selected). I'll follow up on this as it's critical to me -- but there's definitely still some weirdness going on in X1B for me (and you and some others).

Always make a backup system image with Acronis True Image before doing updates. It will save you hours of aggravation if something goes wrong. Scott -- Scott R.

anyway to rool back to x1a if b acts strange ? The easiest way is to image your system (Win 7 native or something like TrueImage or PING) and restore the image if you have a problem. The downside is you will lose any other system changes you have made before you discover that you need to roll back.

Some of mine are projects started in X1a, and some were started in 8.3 but have been edited in X1a without issue.
I must stress I get the odd issue(s) but so far on re-opening there has been no problems. It's just very bizarre behaviour rather than anything damaging or major (so far). It's more of a confidence thing with me.
Haven't started anything in x1b yet, so can't comment.
