Hello @fredgranger .

Thank you for reaching Roon support, welcome to our community.

If Roon isn’t launching properly, it may be due to leftover background processes. Here’s how to close them and relaunch Roon:

1. Open Task Manager

• Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager directly.
  Alternatively, right-click the Taskbar and select Task Manager.

2. Find Roon-Related Processes

• In the Processes tab, look for the following:
  • Roon
  • RoonAppliance
  • RAATServer

3. End the Processes

• Click each of the Roon-related processes.
• Then click the End Task button in the bottom-right corner.

4. Restart Roon instalation

• Launch Roon uninstall from the Startup → Settings → Applications and install it again

Looking forward for the updates after this steps.
