Hi there,
Last week my system updated to Windows 10 home version 1703, OS build 15063.413. I am a heavy user of Protools audio software, using Protools 8.0.5. After the update Protools won't launch, giving the error "Could not complete your request because Access Violation - no RTTI data!".
I rolled back to Win10 version 1607 (build 14393.1358). Everything works again.
I could buy the latest Protools, but it's expensive. About $800 plus $100 per year licence for the plugins I already have with a perpetual licence. Windows update 1703 will break something that is perfectly fine and expensive to replace so I really don't want to do it.
Can I stop that update?
Alternatively, can anyone point me to a good guide for setting up a dual boot machine - I could then run Pro tools out of a Windows 7 boot. At least until I either work out how to get round the Win10 problem or save up enough cash to buy the latest software.
Thanks heaps!
