Sonar won’t launch

If your program will no longer launch, you may be able to resolve the problem by forcing it to re-write some settings behind the scenes. To do so, follow these steps:

1.	Hold down the Windows key on your computer keyboard, then press the R key to open the Run prompt.

2.	Type in the following: %appdata%\cakewalk

3.	Click OK. This opens the Cakewalk content folder in Windows Explorer.

4.	Right-click the Sonar folder and select Rename on the pop-up menu.

5.	Change the folder's name by adding the word “backup” to the end of it. For example: “Sonar backup”.

6.	Close Windows Explorer and restart Sonar.

7.	When prompted with the message “Sonar will now personalize your user settings”, click OK.
