Windows 10: Setting up Cakewalk Sonar X1 LE with Allen and Heath Zed Fx10

I'm setting up the Cakewalk Sonar X1 LE with Allen and Heath Zed Fx10 according to these instructions

I can record the input through the A&H interface but I can't hear the recorded track. I can't see any way of updating any drivers

Anyone else found this possible bug: installing .NET 3.5 apps on Windows 10 causes problems with Cakewalk SONAR

Found what I believe is a major bug in the way .NET 3.5 applications now install in Windows 10. Identified the issue with Cakewalk SONAR Platinum, but I believe it is a problem with Windows (as SONAR worked fine in Windows 8.x). I spent over an hour with
Cakewalk support (very good, it should be said) working through the issue - and it does not seem to be a SONAR issue.

Background:

Using Cakewalk SONAR Platinum (latest builds) which worked fine in Windows 8.1 where I also had Sony Sound Forge Audio 10 (a .NET 3.5 app) and Duplicate Cleaner (another .NET 3.5 app) installed. After the upgrade to Windows 10, SONAR stopped listing various
key items (custom plug in layouts, etc.).

Then reinstalled Windows 10 freshly on separate disk to make sure clean, and after a number of attempts, going back to backups, etc. have found that as soon as you install a .NET 3.5 app, it breaks SONAR with the above problems. You can have the .NET 3.5
package installed or not before - that does not seem to cause the problem with SONAR - but as soon as I installed either of the above apps, SONAR breaks.

And to make it worse, the problem (whatever it is) is not recoverable by a System Restore, which I had used at each step.... had to go to a backup before either of these apps was installed and reinstall everything after that point.

It would be good if others have seen similar issues (even with other programmes) as I think it has to be something to do with the way .NET 3.5 apps get installed in Windows 10 (as never had this issue on Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1) - but just in
case it is not a general problem with Windows 10 will also be providing this same feedback to Cakewalk in case it is an edge case in SONAR that gets triggered by this.

 

Anyone else found this possible bug: installing .NET 3.5 apps on Windows 10 causes problems with Cakewalk SONAR

I just purchased a new computer running the 64 bit version of Windows 10.

I have not been able to install Sonar Platinum.

I have attempted to install the program via Cakewalk's Command Center (their Preferred way) and also from a downloaded version. each time I get the following message:

Error

C:\Program Files \Cakewalk\Sonar Platinum\Stretch.ax

unable to register

dll/ocx: Reg Srv32

failed with code Ox3

Incidently, I have this same Program running on another Computer running the 64 bit version of Windows 10.

Sonar Platinum works well on that second computer. Not so for this new computer.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I have read and tried every solution suggested by Cakewalk but to no avail. It seems like a Windows problem. Please give guidance.

Sonar X3 and Win 10

Good to know!
I could never get the darn Sonar registration to go through so it left me with a half crippled version!
Use Reaper by Cockos from time to time but haven't tried it on WTP.
Also, Windows 8 and up won't find drivers for Allen & Heath mixing board! *Sad
