As to your template, I'll install 2017.08 my main computer and see what happens. On the office computer I'm using now, I moved all my existing templates to a different folder to see which six templates SONAR installed. 

 
To follow up - maybe SONAR just likes me, but when I installed 2017.08 all my previous templates were still there...

Cakewalk - seriously, your emails are TOO WIDE!! Check them in Microsoft Outlook 2016 will you? The images don't resize so the only way to see the content in the body is to make Outlook go full 1920x1080. Your emails never used to be like this. It happened when you changed the look.

this bug had just been fixed, and the crackle sounds are gone! great job!
although the 24bit flac file was still shown as 32bit inside a SONAR audio track......
But are 24bit exportations actually dithered now from 32/64 bit FP?

This may be redundant but have you tried Control - (that's control minus).
As you may already know Control - or + will decrease or increase text size, at least in Firefox, Thunderbird and other programs.
 

I mentioned I was using Outlook 2016, not Office 365. Outlook 2016, in this case, is installed on a computer and is not accessed via a browser. When designing email templates, one has to be very careful as the myriad of email clients are not compatible with all of the facilities HTML allows for. I think that's what's happened here. Whoever at Cakewalk is handling these emails didn't test thoroughly enough, or at all outside of their own client (which may well be Gmail).

My niece uses Outlook 2016  and she says that control -/+ does change the text size.  Let me know if it works for you.
 
Note that Thunderbird is my email program and it does not go through a browser and control +/- works on it.
 
YMMV

This is more than likely a local fix.

 
Nope. Cakewalk's emails are the only ones I receive out of more than a dozen daily that have images that are too wide - forcing a horizontal scrollbar to appear.

Again, we're not talking about a web browser here, we're talking about a desktop application, Outlook 2016, and while it understands HTML for the body of the email, the HTML it understands is a subset of what is available for the browser (for instance, no <DIV> style statements, that's why Tables are usually for formatting purposes). I don't think Cakewalk's email person understands this.
 
If anyone else is receiving Cakewalk emails via an Outlook client, I'd love for them to chime in.

Are the days gone when an update comes out and everyone talks about how much they love it?  Is it just too complicated these days for any software company to deal with all the different hardware/software variations on all the computers?

Tougher to see with monthly incremental updates, IMO. If we all waited a year to update I am quite sure you would hear a lot of ooh's and ah's about all of the features. This is much better, IMO.
I love the program and love the monthly updates. Cake are mostly hitting the mark from my perspective.

They are at least further in between..
I forget to come and post about a feature I like, as I'm getting used to the frequent updates. (Shame on me
For me, even though it's like X-mas (almost) each month, I always keep looking for the next one 
 
I have a rock solid system, and haven't had any issues that I can remember right now.
 
Newcomers to this has to learn not just a DAW, but how to make sure Windows will run as smooth as possible while working / recording. It's not an easy task.
I don't think (for those on) Win 10 updates has made this easier either.
This and the different HW configurations which can differ, almost from pc to pc in today's myriad of components.
All the best.
 

Thanks for your post above.  Is it fair to say that most people were better off staying on Windows 7?  
Best,

I agree with Zarrg... after 6 months of pulling my hair out with a MOTU 828x, I switched to a RME Babyface Pro and almost all of my problems went away. I am now running the latest versions of Sonar Platinum and Windows 10 Home 64bit and let Windows update whenever it wants... never any problems with the RME drivers. Sonar has been extremely stable and the odd time there has been a crash, it has been from a 3rd party plugin being added to a session that was started on a previous version of Sonar. Restarting from a recovered version gets me going again with no problems. RME rocks!!! And Sonar ain't too shabby either, when you get your computer and hardware sorted out. RME is definitely worth the extra expense.

Everything fine here too at the moment... I'm getting audio dropouts but I am putting that down to me using MMultiBandGranular and Adaptiverb which are quite CPU hungry.

Win 10 pro and QUAD-CAPTURE and OCTA-CAPTURE (not at the same time of course...)
