Ableton won't start due to time change in the UK

[amo]

Live is dead to me at the moment and I need to do a mix.

I keep on reading delete preferences.cfg to make it work again - problem is there is no file on my computer anywhere called preferences.cfg and no preference folder in any of the paths mentioned.

Help

Are you on PC ? Cause the preferences.cfg and the preferences folder are system files, that are hidden by default. In windows explorer, you need to go to Tools/Folder Options, then click view, choose to see all files invluding system files.
Donno if you're on mac though....

I have the same problem displayed here, but I even can't find the preferences.cfg file!!! No matter pressing on "show all files" no matter searching... Oh, Gosh! I'm losing my little wasted patience, any help, my friends?

Hi,

Are you on XP ? Then, you have a "show hidden files and folder" to tick, and " to untick. Then it should be located in
C:\Documents and Settings\*yourName*\Application Data\Ableton\Live 5.0.2\Preferences

*yourName* should be your loggin name in winodows or Administrator, depending on your installation.

Hope that helps,
