Is Wave Lab 6 compatible with the new Windows 10 update?
Yes it (wavelab6)works and save…open…:also ok
I try to find a solution for wavelab 5…:work by draging a file but crash when save or open .If somebody can also continue this topic.
Why to use wavlab 5 if I own wavelab 6 : on my laptop : if I don’t need to take allways the dongle could be great!
BEst regards
I hoped someone else would have the same query as me. Glad to see they have.
I run Wavelab 6 on a Windows 7 machine (WaveLab 6.1.1.353). I’ve never needed anything more than some basic features on it - wave editing/cutting/batch processing etc - so haven’t upgraded to newer versions of Wavelab. Does anyone have an idea whether it’ll work if I upgrade to Windows 10 or whether I need some tips to resolving any issues? I don’t fancy buying the software again for the small amount use it gets.
I’ve been happily working in Wavelab 6 on Windows 7 but have now upgraded to Windows 10 on a new computer and find I can’t get the e-licenser to download Wavelab 6, although that’s what I keep clicking on - I keep getting downloads of software for 8.5, which I don’t know how to use. I assume I’ll have to learn eventually but for right now I just want Wavelab 6 to open. Does anyone know if there’s any way around this?
According to the 2nd post in this thread Wavelab 6 should work on Windows 10, so you should be able to get it running using the following procedure.
-
Download and install the latest elicenser software on your new Windows 10 computer.

Move your USB elicenser from your old Windows 7 computer to your new Windows 10 computer.
-
Download and install the latest Wavelab 6 installer for your version from Steinberg Downloads onto your new Windows 10 comupter. Wavelab 6 (which is the full version), Wavelab Essential 6, and Wavelab Studio 6 installers are available under “Unsupported Products”.

Hi - thanks a lot Bob but unfortunately that still results in 8.5 appearing. I’d done what’s described in that post before asking my question - and had tried removed all e-licenser stuff before doing it all again (three times), each time clicking on Wavelab 6 - but still 8.5 appears. If anyone has managed to make their new Windows 10 computer download Wavelab 6 I’d love to hear from you.
Update - it is working! So thanks again, Bob. Ignore parts 1 and 2 in the stages listed above - they didn’t work for me, except to download Wavelab 8.5. Instead go straight to clicking the link in stage 3 and head to Unsupported Products. It doesn’t offer the possibility of opening Wavelab 6 on any version of Windows beyond 7 but if you go ahead and download it anyway, it works. Or seems to so far… The screen looks a bit fuzzy but it’s there.
