I can't select and generate realtracks - the list is empty. This works when I do it on my Windows 7 PC. On Windows 10 when I try to use a utility track to generate a realtrack no options show up. The list is empty. On this PC the realtracks are not on the C drive. But BIAB knows that they are on the F drive and is able to play them as part of the song for regular tracks. Using version 2021 822. Any ideas? Thanks.

I also just noticed that I can't add midi supertracks either. That list is also empty. I don't know if these two things have ever worked on this pc before because I just tried using these features on this computer.

Build 822 is quite new. I don't recall anyone saying anything about this. I just tested it and it worked for me.

Give us the exact steps you are taking, so we can try to duplicate your result.

I right click on a utility track - generate - select and generate realtracks.

I just noticed that I am also unable to select any midi supertacks for the main tracks. That list is empty also. Maybe I should reinstall the entire program but I am not sure how to do that since just redoing the latest update will probably not do a full reinstall. Which file would I use to reinstall the program? I already did the reset of the settings.

Oops, I see that. Hang in and see if anyone else experiences it. You can always generate the ‘regular’ track and Edit, Copy Special to move it to a Utility Track.
