    Hey guys! What's up?

    I'm getting this error when I try to open WaveShell

    upload_2021-10-19_18-35-53.png

    My PC: Windows 8.1 x64
    My DAW: Fl Studio 20 x64

    I downloaded and installed it correctly through Waves Central. My DAW (FL Studio) scanned everything fine but when I open the WaveShell.vst3/.dll (for some reason I only get this file, I don't have every effect separated) I'm getting this error.

    I already download all the latest updates for my computer (C++, vcredist, etc).. I don't really know where is this came from.

    I hope someone have the solution for this.

    Thank you so much

    The version of Waves you installed requires Windows 10 or 11. "SetThreadDpiAwarenessContext" is not available in Windows 8.1.

    Absolutely. Since I updated from XP to Win7 everything's running smoothly. :winker:
