I had BandLab Asst uninstalled and I thought I'd install the new version to check things out. Fine, I opened a small project in CbB (3 audio tracks only) and it threw audio dropout warning. I upped ASIO buffer to max, still dropout. I switched to WASAPI, still dropout. I tried same project in SPlat, still dropout in ASIO or WASAPI. I tried different project in both, same. I went to do a system restore and found all my restore points wiped out! Last resort, I uninstalled BandLab Asst and rebooted. Said project now played fine in CbB or SPlat. I immediately made a new restore point. Beware the new BandLab Asst! Meng, what gives?

I installed it, just to authorise CbB.

Once that is done, you don’t need it to start CbB.

No interference here.

Exactly, I think people think you need it to open Cakewalk. You don't. It's just like CCC or your XLN apps. YOu only open it when you want to check for updates. And you can disable it from auto starting now if you have version 3.0.6
