Instead of highlighting the current measure, it highlights the next one.
I reinstalled BIAB but the problem persists.
BIAB 2019 running on Windows 10.
Any thoughts on this?

Hmm. It’s hard for most of us to try to duplicate this on the older version. I assume you’ve installed the latest build available for that version.
Give PG Music Support a call.

Hi riddlereader! Have you tested if this is happening in just one song file or in all of your song projects? As mentioned before, make sure that you have the latest build update installed for the 2019 version. You can find it here: https://www.pgmusic.com/support_windowsupdates.htm#644 Then, try going to Options | Return to Factory Settings, and see if the notes are highlighting properly. If that doesn't resolve the issue, please close Band-in-a-Box, go to your bb folder (usually c:\bb\preferences), and delete the following two files: Mysetup.dk intrface.bbw Next, please right click on your Band-in-a-Box shortcut and select Properties | Compatibility | check "Run program as administrator" and click apply. Then just double click on your Band-in-a-Box icon to launch the program and test your song.
Best, Chantelle

Well, he did a reinstall, the ultimate return to factory settings.
Your first and last paragraphs are interesting suggestions. Have you seen that a corrupt song file could do this? I haven’t heard this complaint before. Nor has running as Administrator been connected with something like this. But let’s hope you are right.

Factory settings fixed it!

Settings are saved into files inside of the Preferences folder. If you are re-installing over top of your previous Band-in-a-Box, these files can still be preserved. So it is best to try a Return to Factory settings, and/or deleting these specific files. And it sounds like that's what did the trick!
Best, Chantelle

Very good! That’s helpful to know that preferences are not overridden by a reinstall. This explains other cases where a reinstall did not fix the problem.

Yes, I noticed after I did the uninstall, there were still folders intact on the C drive associated with BIAB.
Thanks again.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
