Yeah, right! haha! Laughing

Good idea, though!

a detail:

2. Initialising Preferences

Corrupted program preference files can bring your Steinberg sequencer into all kinds of troubles, particularly after installing an update.
Fortunately, refreshing the preferences is quite easy:

* Quit the sequencer.
* Go to "Start menu > (All) Programs > *Your Steinberg Sequencer* and select "Open *Your Steinberg Sequencer* Application Data Folder". 
It's a direct link to the folder where all program relevant settings and preferences are stored. It will be opened in a new Windows Explorer window.
* Go up one level in the directory tree by hitting Alt + Up Arrow (Vista) or Backspace (XP, above Enter key). 
Now you are in the Steinberg folder within the "Application Data" (XP) resp. "Roaming" folder (Vista) of Windows.
* Locate the folder which is named the same as your sequencer, for example "Cubase 5".
* Rename it (for example to "xCubase 5") in order to hide it from the sequencer.

when renaming files and folders I'd rather change the other end of the name i.e Cubase 5x. It really doens't matter in your Steinberg folder with a few sub folders and a half file but let's say you're in windows\system32 or some place with loads of files and folders and you rename a file and then sort files and folders alphabetically. Where is your file now? And are you sure you've found the right renamed file?

Yes, that's definitely the better way. I've changed that accordingly. Thanks for the hint!

Cheers,

Georg

Also rename the application data folder of earlier Cubase versions, to prevent defaults being copied.

Cheers,
Joerg
