And - the url in my OP above, which was linked to some generic page at the time I made the post, now works great.
Some kind of change in the last few hours, I guess Steinberg server was having lunch. All good now - thanks, I may n never have gone back to “check again”!
Too bizarre - now, just a few moments later, on the same two different computers everything worked fine on just a few moments ago, Grim’s url, mine in the OP, and putting “Preferences” in the KB search engine is routed to … the same generic page that prompted my OP again … it’s like the target page has changed in the last few moments, and twice in the last few hours? (Sorry for the non-techy language).
Last time posting on this one until I hear back from someone (Steinberg)?
I checked two moments ago, and the links were, glory be, active once again. Learning from experience I quickly opened up the detailed KB article, and shot a quick .pdf of it.
One moment later I closed it down, and went to reopen it … and once more, it was an ex-link, very parrot-like, not opening anything but the generic “empty” page (no KB Preference details at all).
I guess the Steinberg server is acting goofy, either that or all the computers and mobile devices in my house are.
I did notice there was no preference file for the MixConsole in the pages that opened up briefly … I wonder if it wasn’t the most current version of the KB article that opened up?
