Need to do a hard reset on Finale on Windows...
Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2018 10:43 am
Hi --
I have Finale 2014.5, running on Windows 7, 32-bit. As of today, I can no longer change the attachment point for Expressions, no matter how "hard" I drag them.
--- I tested expression dragging in a brand-new default document; no dice, no improvement.
--- I tried letting the program re-create the Windows C:/Users/.../AppData/Roaming/MakeMusic/Finale 2014.5/FINALE.INI file, per Makemusic's "reset" advice; that doesn't help.
--- I tried renaming away the Windows registry entry "HKEY_CURRENT_USER...Software/Makemusic/Finale 2014.5", and letting Finale re-create it. Nope, no fix there.
But when I tried logging in as a different user on my PC, Expression dragging worked just fine.
Any idea where else I might go in order to properly clobber Finale's login-specific setup information?
thanks,
Garry
