Hi Chuck
 
I do not have Java installed
I have heard java is not good.
So really this should not have happened as the previous assistant worked without  installing Java.
I have uninstalled the assitant for now.

Hi
 
I have just downloaded the bandlab assistant on my main computer for Internet use  and the same Javer exception is there.
 
This is a Bandlab problem.
 
All the best

CB,
I only saw this when I  did a full scan with software, which I  had just loaded. I did not pay attention when I  was letting the software remove all things. You know, addware, Spyware and such. I did a deep scan, and only the protect software picked this up. Need I say  defender and firewall from MS did nothing about this. It could have been because I  had AD2 opened when the 'self appointed' BA decided to update without asking....like I  said, all is running good now. I will check virus software to see if it retained info about virus after deleteing.
Thanks for asking,
MJ

You might be able to try updating Java

Javascript has nothing to do with Java.
 

 
scook has also mentioned this several times.
 
After all, as famed web developer Jeremy Keith once poignantly put it—”Java is to JavaScript as ham is to hamster.” But for the uninitiated, you’d be forgiven for thinking there was some sort of link

When I had BA installed on my old laptop (since uninstalled), I got the javascript thing a couple of times, and then it just stopped occurring for whatever reason, I did nothing to try and fix it, and nothing had changed on the laptop.

The last assistant worked without loading this java thing with a smoking cup of coffee.
Why is the latest update got this exception????
It  goes to show it is down to the programmer.
 If things start going this way I will unload Bandlab and keep to Cubase.
I paid a lot of money for Sonar. I know it's bandlab now.
At least It would be nice for a Bandlab to comment and even look Into this.
Why is there no positive answer for this exception??????
It is full of people saying I am ok jack,but nothing positive.
 
All the best

I was actually referring to coffee (java)

Ok try this, I was thinking about it, and against my better judgement I installed BA on my old laptop again to check.
 
If you close BA by clicking the X in the top right hand corner, it does not close BA, but instead it remains in the system tray, if you subsequently try to run BA again by double clicking your shortcut, it will give the javascript error everytime. If however you close BA by going to the options (the little gear icon top left) and selecting 'quit', (which does actually close BA), and then subsequently try to run BA again by double clicking your shortcut, you will not get the javascript error. I tried this 10 times, and it was reproducible 100% of the time. Try it.

The light went off when I remembered that trying to close BA by the X in the top right doesn't actually close it, but just left it running in the System Tray, and that to actually close BA you had to go 'Options/Quit'. That is most likely why it happened to me a couple of times and then no more, those couple of times I must have inadvertently tried to close BA by the X, (which is the normal procedure most times) instead of 'Options/Quit', which left it running in the System Tray, and then when I tried to start it by double clicking the shortcut I got the error.

You are right Matron.
If you use Bandlab Assistant- then Options -Quit, it opens up next time without the script error.
Big thanks for that.
So it is down to the bandlab programmers to sort that annoying problem out.
I hope nothing affects the update because of a little annoyance.
 
 
Hi Chuck
Columbian coffee please!!!
I will have a Budweiser and hope England can beat the pants off of Sweden, Mama Mia!!!
 
All the best
