Cubase 14 - WIN10 - Maintenance Update Confusion

Hello,

I went out of town and left my computer on(CUBASE 14 Artist was closed). I know, I should have shut down.
I feel like this is a license issue or an update issue.
The licenser change happened while I was out of town.

When I returned, I restarted the computer and opened Cubase and “recent projects” was blank. I created a new project but the “add track” function is greyed out.

When I tried to open a project I was working on from windows explorer, it prompted me to install Cubase 9 which apparently I uninstalled but didn’t delete it.

Steinberg Activation Manager shows Cubase 14 Artist as activated.
Download Assistant only has the option to install Cubase and Groove Agent. Those are the two maintenance updates, right?
I installed both Groove Agent and Cubase 14 Artist, but still no change.

Any suggestions? I can’t be the only one…

Hi,

Could you try to Disable Preferences in the Safe Start Dialogue?
