According to your system diagnostics, you haven’t installed Build 970 on your Roon Server machine, you’ve installed it on one remote, your Core and 2 other remotes remain on Build 952.

Yes, my comment was made before i installed the update to the server. I had only updated the one remote and will only update one remote as the other two are not in use. They are for back-ups only incase i need an old revision that worked prior. I have had so many problems with new releases that i have learned to make sure i always have a backup and delay any new install.
Since my original post, I did install the update (or started it) to the server and it locked up. Roon will not start. I am currently working trying to find a resolution to this new problem. Hopefully its simple as i would hate to have to do what i see others have had to do to clear up problems. I am concerned about me doing something to corrupt my db.
Since you can see my diagnostics but others cant … here is the fault i get from the most recent attempt at server install.

Roon will not restart after the update and server restart.
Any suggestions from someone who may have experienced this before. My auto response would be to install and uninstall the pgm. If i do this will the db need to be reindexed (another week long process i would appreciate avoiding)?
TIA
I am sorry to report that the new patch has not resolved my issue. I started Roon this morning, put on a playlist and minimized the Roon client (I run the client and server on same machine) and then proceeded to do other things on the same machine. After about an hour of trouble free playback and with music still playing, I attempted to maximize the Roon client and rather than maximize, the Roon application terminated. This is a DIFFERENT behavior, in that it immediately failed after attempting to maximize, rather than maximizing and then hanging and finally crashing. There was NO WINDOWS SYSTEM EVENT logged, in contrast to previous behavior.
Verdict: the problem I was experiencing is not fixed although the manifested behavior is different than previously.
Notes:
- Windows 10 Home, all patches applied using latest NVIDIA graphics driver.
- Roon version 1.8 (build 970) stable (64 bit)
- Roon was minimized while in the playlist view showing the tracks in the playlist, though I don’t think this has any impact.
- I was using an application during the time that used the system audio while using Roon to stream to a Sonos Connect.
- Core directly wired to Router which the Sonos Connect was also directly wired to.
- I do not use any audio processing in Roon (it is disabled in options, not even volume levelling is enable.)
- My next test today will be to run the Roon output to the system output and see if that makes any difference.
edit: sending output to system had same results. Still crashed after being maximized over about 45 minutes.

In line with above experiences, build 970 did not solve the issue for me. Today I experienced a mix of familiar crashes and new behaviour:
Familiar:
- When pulling up Roon remote from the background, it generates a Windows 10 error message (A new guard page for the stack cannot be created), upon closing that message Roon terminates.
New:
- When attempting to pull up Roon remote, it simply self-terminates.
- When pulling up Roon remote from the background, it is unresponsive and displays a loading mouse icon. After approx. 10 seconds it becomes responsive and playback is unaffected.
The last case is a slight improvement. It means that sometimes Roon is just slow to respond and otherwise does not behave unexpectedly. However, the underlying issue seems to be pervasive and still also causes full-on crashes.
What did not happen anymore is that Roon skips to another track when it recovers.
Add-on: crashes seem to be less frequent…

Sorry to report 970 doesn’t stop my Roon Core crashes. Same as before, minimized comes up and bombs out. As other’s said, seemed like it crashed quicker.

Sort of a mixed bag after being forced to uninstall and reinstall the core due to the corrupt install that occurred when updating.
So far, in about an hour of playing, i have not had a crash on the remote the other than its initial turn on after uninstall and reinstall of roon core software.
Disappointed to have to report my memory usage has not changed and is well beyond what i had seen in the past and what others are reporting. I am currently using (now and before the update) around 3.8G +/- 10% (with peaks above 9G) and this is without playing anything or using dsp (both of which dont seem to affect the memory usage number which seems odd).
Roon is working again for me - by only installing the server part on machine mentioned in previous post. The latest build keeps running, so thats a definite heads up! Will keep on testing using multiple clients.
So far its still freezing/lagging for me after the update. I am either not as sensitive to this issue as other users or its not as bad on my machine, but it does happen.
Roon does “catch up” and it doesn’t crash, but it freezes for 5 - 20 secs.
1.) It does not really have relation to minimizing / maximizing the app, I’ve noticed it both ways. It just has to do with me not doing anything with Roon and music is playing in the background for a while.
2.) I haven’t tested this. My Roon sits in now playing/track listings 99% of the time.

Still seeing the same behavior in the Windows app. Leaving it alone while music is playing will eventually result in it becoming unresponsive for 5-10 seconds… or even crashing. My server (which runs on Linux) is unaffected, continues playing music and can be controlled by my smartphone.

I just noticed that my roonserver on my Windows Server wasn’t working and stumbled across this thread.
This is the error that I’m seeing:
Application: RoonServer.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.TypeLoadException
at Sooloos.App.InitPing()
at Sooloos.App.Init()
at Sooloos.App.Main(System.String[])
Is there a known fix to this? I can’t get Roon to start at the moment due to this. It immediately terminates when I try to run it.
---- EDIT -----
My issue is resolved.

It was fine last night after update. However, it start freezing again the next day.
I would suggest opening a new support thread filling in all the requested information.
The last update seems to have fixed this for me so far
