WaveLab 11 Elements crashing upon startup

Hi there,

I’ve been using WaveLab 11 Elements for a simple mastering project but once I closed the session, I haven’t been able to load up the software since. I can’t seem to get past the first pop up window where you can choose recent projects. I’m on Mac OS Monterey.

Has anyone had similar experience?

Thank you!

Launch WaveLab with the Command Key pressed until the startup dialog appears.

Hi PG1,

Thank you so much for the response.

When I held down command it didn’t work so I experimented and it seems like holding down both Ctrl + CMD buttons until opening the session did the job.

Thank you for your help! You have saved the day!

Cheers

This just saved the day for me as well. Thanks for posting!
I’d installed WL 11 yesterday and everything was working fine. Today however I started getting exactly the same issue as the OP.
It seems that what caused the problem for me was that instead of launching WL and then opening a file from the app, this time I right clicked on an audio file in Finder, and selected “Open With” from the Finder contextual menu. From that moment on WL was not starting up.
Holding Command as you suggested worked.
