I love happy endings! That was an excellent shot! 
Pitty it doesn't help people who don't have LE. Or should we now hold CW obligated to give LE to persons facing this problem ;o) 

Deesnay, your two hours is absolutely nothing compared to how big the damage could have been. You could have hired a musician, worked for weeks, months, and then in the mixing phase, in order to tidy up the screen, you'd think you'll hide some tracks.....And deadline would have been next day, of course.

Now THAT, is a serious workaround. 

I nominate that one for workaround of the year!!!


great save there Robert.

Well, IMO, Cakewalk should add an unhide feature to MC6 since they accidentally left the hide feature intact. They should offer it as a hotfix or something in an act of goodwill and customer service. If it were my business I would not hesitate and I do own a business. I have had to do things that cost me money because it was the right thin to do to rectify a situation. Frankly, I consider it as American as apple pie.

I can see no excuse for not doing the right thing when you make a mistake. If there is more to this than I know then perhaps I am mistaken. Otherwise, they should take care of it now.

I'm with you on that, Julien.
Either unblock the deactivated code, or plug the hole that allows this to happen. Activating the Hide function completely would be a nice gesture, I think.
This is not a bug.  It is not a system specific problem.  It is a screw-up, plain and simple.
Fortunately, Deesnay had a backdoor available, but not all users will have that option.
