Here's a screenshot, I tried unin and rein-stalling Cubase. When I open "track control settings" I pick the standard preset, but nothing is happening.
Please help! I'll be super grateful!

If you click where the buttons should be does it works as if they were there?
Maybe this sounds stupid but have you tried with the original color of cubase?

You don't sound stupid at all. The buttons that are there work, except there are at least a couple important ones, including the "show instrument" button. Not good.Jolaff wrote:If you click where the buttons should be does it works as if they were there?

If you right click on any track and choose Track Controls Settings, you will be able to add/remove what you want. You can also reset it to the default.
Here is a snapshot of what I mean:

It is Cubase rebelling against the pink
I kid, I kid.
I am not on my PC now, but go to your Cubase preference folder.
There is a file in there called Defaults.xml, move that to the desktop and try restarting cubase please.

Okay I found the folder, put defaults on my desktop, and found this dialog:
value="TrackControlsSettingsDialog"/>
<member name="Values">
<obj class="UPoint" name="Location" ID="460730192">
<int name="H" value="599"/>
<int name="V" value="203"/>
</obj>
</member>
</item>
<item>
<string name="Group"
value="TrackControlsSettingsDialog"/>

When you restarted Cubase did it work?
I wanted Cubase to create a new Default.xml file which it should do if it doesn't find one in the correct folder.

EnGee, thanks so much for trying to help, I'm super grateful. It turns out I had to go to close Cubase, go to user/Steinberg/Roaming App Data, take the default folder, put it on my desktop (so there wasn't a default folder in the App Data folder), and restart Cubase. Everything came back fine. Warning to folks doing this: make sure you save your color scheme, etc as a preset first. You also might have to reconfigure your device (I didn't).EnGee wrote:What if you run it by right clicking the icon and choose Run as administrator?
Also did you try to update e-licenser and then run maintenance ...?

It is one file in that folder that is responsible for your original issue. I thought it was the default.xml file..... but it might not have been.
By moving all the files out of the 'preferences' it forced it to rebuild which of course sadly removed all your preferences/customisations.
I always keep several backups almost every month of the whole folder for such instances.
It it wasn't the default.xml it may be the RAMPreset file in Presets.
If you already dumped your desktop file it may not be worth it for me to do so,
but if you haven't I can quickly check if it is indeed the default or the rampreset file responsible.......
Either way glad you got it sorted.
