We could do more verbose logging only in safe mode. It would be expensive to write a log each time and it would slow down the load.

Maybe be run on demand like safe-mode or switched in preferences like the scan log?
For some the start up penalty might be worth the extra documentation.

The Toast thing is good.  I have no problem with it and thank Noel, Meng and the gang for implementing it.  No one should sweat it.  It's fine.

I have uninstalled Bandlab as I am a great believer in ,you get nothing free.
This program is getting worse every update.
I have a latest fast machine and it is rock solid. There is nothing wrong with my computer.
 
Cubase works fine.
 
Anyone like me having grief with this program.
 
 
All the best

Nope, not at all.

I would like to see the toast info written out to the project folder to use as a manifest; preferably in a human readable tagged format. Maybe even containing preset data formatted in a way that could be imported by the Preset Manager.

Nice idea. Safe-mode>Yes To All> Yes option brings a "Generate Log?" prompt >Yes

I just tried opening the latest version to see what the fuss is and I thought the info box was a great idea - at least you know what is going on as the VSTs load.
 
The little message at the end could go away though.....
 
 
Grum.

This ^^^! Good idea. That way it is up to the individual.

I forget the app now, but long ago there was an app that cycled one-liners to be funny similar to "Secretly plotting to confuse you further..." etc.

Be thankful the toast doesn't say something like "BTW, your web cam is on..."

+1, to the log when loading in safe mode, that would be helpful to everyone.

And maybe a pop-up window asking if you'd like to create scan log when you first restart cakewalk after a crash?
