So I am using the 2012 version of Notepad, my playback has started having weird issues. I was able to get sound using the default MIDI output, but I prefer the sound of the SmartMusic SoftSynth. The biggest issue I'm having is that the bar that follows the music doesn't appear when I start playback and does not change the page when it goes to the next one. I recently emailed and downloaded some old files I had on another computer to this one to try to work on some old tunes and that's when the issues started. Biggest things I'm trying to fix is getting the SoftSynth MIDI to work and have the playback needle follow the music. Any help would be appreciated

The first step is to reboot your system. Sometimes that does the trick.
