I have just finished installing Band in a Box 2019 on my Windows 10 computer system and immediately it disabled Pro Tools. I cannot even open up ProTools.

I have been a Band in a Box user for 25+ years and a ProTools user for 10+ years and nothing like this has ever happened until this year.

Band in a Box works fine generating new arrangements, but I cannot even open up Pro Tools to check any settings.

The error message I get from Pro Tools is:

"The selected ASIO audio device could not be initialized. Please choose another audio device"

I have been using Pro Tools continuously for 10 years and have never had this problem - I cannot even open ProTools to look at what device is in use.

Additionally when I try to record anything with Audacity, I get a similar message "Error while opening sound devise"

Both of these effects started happening immediately after I installed Band in a Box 2019.

I need Pro Tools to work. What do I do?
