    After a quick test, some results have come. Dune 3 is crashing Ableton. I can't even remove it from the track. I don't know which team's release it is. I'll test it more later.

    just move it to your desktop so the DAW can't see it. maybe reboot even. if Ableton can still open it, definitely reboot.

    Create an empty project and drag the other tracks into it, see if it works, save. Then try to drag the Dune3 track into it and see how it goes. If it does crash then create the track from scratch (using the presets saved previously, perhaps).

    Dune 3 VST2 v3.6.4 and v3.6.5 are crashing Ableton. VST3 is working well. I cannot load VST2. I have just checked it. I have been on Windows 11 24h2 for a few weeks.

    Did you tried to open the events viewer. You'll see the origin of the problem
    Select Start on the Windows menu, type Event Viewer, and press Enter to open the Event Viewer.

    I can't find anything suspicious about Ableton in the Event Viewer

    The legit demo version of Dune 3 VST2 and VST3 is working well.

    selected one channel at a time, remember the last one, when you delete and a crash follows.
    found the channel?
    now remove plugins one by one from the channel, till you find the one, where it crashes again.

    Dune3 is the bad egg in your project, i read?
    it might be difficult to remove it now. You could try to install other versions of Dune3, maybe this will make it working?
    Ableton doesnt care which version it loads aslong as Dune3 is there.

    Other idea, rename Dune3 plugin file or remove it from the plugin folder.
    Ableton cant load it and you should be alright with the project.
    Been there and this was always a good solution.

    I uninstalled Dune 3 with Revo Uninstaller and reinstalled version 3.6.5. Guess what... It works like a charm, VST2 and VST3. :dunno:
    Sorry for the mess I made. I finally fixed my project. Thanks for the help, guys.:mates::wink:
