Description Of Issue
when roon starts up it stops at a screen to ask to add your music then another add a music service then to finish, setup your audio devices, this has only started happening since 1.8 upgrade. it used to just login and start up, its doing this across all my device’s which luckily I have teamviewer access to pc’s setup as remotes for living room etc. but it is frustrating, its also doing it on my IOS phone any help would be greatly appreciated. I also do love the software and being an IT consultant understand your frustrations but you are doing a great job, the fact your fixing and improving as you go along will only mean an even more amazing product.
Hi Mike
All windows updates are installed, the core is my main PC so is shut down every night, I even just downloaded the latest Roon build and reinstalled, see attachments as to what’s coming up every time I start up.
Do you have any kind of “Deep Freeze” capabilities enabled on the Core or are you running the Core in some kind of VM Container? If you click through the menu, do you see your Roon library as expected with previously added tracks/content?
The only thing I can think of is an encryption software that was put on a coupe of weeks ago that I am trialling for my clients but was working fine with previous version of Roon
It’s hard to say for sure what the root cause is, but typically when something like this occurs it is because the database location is not persistent and is being wiped by some application / automated function. The Roon directory needs to be persistent or else this type of issue can arise.
Is there anything that could be modifying / wiping the Roon directory on your setup?
