NA (Roon not starting)
Description Of Issue
Previous installation of 1.7 running as a remote. Updated to 1.8 and all was good. Deauthorised 1.7 ROCK core and registered my 1.8 Win 10 machine as a core. An iPad remote connected fine and all was good.
Re-authorised 1.7 ROCK core and connected a 1.7 iPad remote without issue, but 1.8 Windows Roon will no longer start. Just get the animated Roon icon. Re-boot has not fixed it.
one other detail in case useful: on attempting to start Roon, very briefly there is a large white rectangle (I run dark theme) on the background, then I just get the dark screen with the Roon icon, hanging.
Decided I had nothing to lose on my Windows machine in going for a full uninstall of Roon and starting again, and Roon is now running. Clearly something went amiss in the 1.8 update.
I have the same issue except I can not get Roon to Run on my pc. The icon does nothing. it doesn’t even look like it attempts to start. Not sure how to resolve it. I have not heard a word back from Roon about this.
sorry to hear that. I run Win 10 on an Intel NUC with an M.2 SSD C: drive, and 1.7 Roon used to start instantly. With the full uninstall of 1.8 and then reinstallation I can get 1.8 to start now, but it’s a very ponderous start-up, I see the Roon icon for a fair while before it starts properly, and the database scan has completed. Once 1.8 Roon eventually starts, the Windows client seems responsive, it’s just the start-up that’s really slow now.
