Hello @Breen_Lyden,
Thanks for sharing this and for your patience while we returned to work after the weekend.
I’m sorry about the trouble 
. @Mike_O_Neill’s suggestion is a great first step to try:
Thanks in advance 
This did not work
Thanks for letting us know, @Breen_Lyden - sorry about that. I have looped in our technical team and you will hear back from them on this thread 
Thank you!

How do I restore from a backup at least a week before this issue started?
Thank you
Hey @Breen_Lyden,
Thanks for keeping in touch and sorry about the trouble!
Did you go through all the step, except the restoring a backup? If you want to continue with this step, we have instructions here:
Please, let me know if you get stuck 
I don’t think I have a useable backup to restore, this has been happening for months. I’ve tried renaming the roon file roon_old then reinstalling 7 times now it still freezes
Hello @Breen_Lyden,
I am so sorry to hear about the backup restore not working. After having reinstalled Roon and named the database Roon_old, is Roon still freezing? Or is it only freezing when you’re attempting to restore a backup?
I don’t have a backup to restore to, so I’ve never tried that. I’ve only tried reinstalling Roon and named the database Roon_old, Roon still freezing
Hi @Breen_Lyden
Can you please use the directions found here and send us over a set of logs using a shared Dropbox link (or any other file sharing service)? Thanks!
Thanks!
Sorry I missed your response here, @Breen_Lyden. I looked at the logs and unfortunately, I think we need a bit more information. Can you please send us Event Viewer logs?
OK – this should open Event Viewer windowApplication subsection and pick Filter Current Log... from the context menu
Filter tab for the Logged section pick a parameter Last 30 days and press OK
Save filtered log file as.. from the context menuRoon_USERNAME , and press Save
Thank you!
1.I am trying to run Roon Core on a Dell Inspiron Win 10, 7570 i7, 24 GB RAM, 480GB SSD ( m.2 NVME).
2. I have checked GPU drivers for Intel integrated, and Nvidia 940MX
3. I have run diagnostics on all laptop components wit no isuue.
4. I have uninstalled, removed folders and re-installed the software with 64Bit and 32 Bit, but the program installs ok, and then freezes and drops out. The screen goes white and bombs out and resets, this keeps occurring without any instructions on its own. The music keeps playing for 20-30 minutes, then everything shuts down.
Hello @Breen_Lyden ,
Thank you for sending the Event Viewer Logs over and apologies for the delay in getting back to you here.
It looks like Roon is crashing due to nvoglv64.dll, which is related to your graphics card drivers. There was a similar report for another application I found, can you please check to see if these steps help resolve the issue for Roon as well?
Thank you!
