SOLVED - Failed to open the audio device Ableton Push

Post by Alex_Drift_Ambient » Wed Sep 17, 2025 5:53 am

Hi all! I'm Alex, from italy, using Ableton Version 12.2.5. I've noticed a few things lately, first off if I try to use Push audio interface I get the error message in the subject and second Ableton Push Control Panel icon is missing from the tray. I don't know when it started because I also have a Focusrite USB audio interface. I've tried reaching out to the support but I haven't got an answer yet, also tried unistalling Ableton and removing the driver from Windows Device Manager but none worked.
Can anyone help me out, please?

Hi all....quick update for anyone interested. I've solved the problem by completely uninstalling Ableton USB Audio Driver, that includes manually deleting folders and files which weren't removed, pf data and registry key associated to it. Then I've downloaded the executable in Download Archive page and reinstalled it again.
