  RE: [Solved] SF18 crashes when loading a file.
  You could try resetting Sound Forg14 and/or 18 in the 'File' menu.. however I would surmise it is a PC related issue. Some folks have had issues with MP3 files and resetting usually resolves that issue. There are no common problems with PCM wave

  Hi Paul, I do not think iZotope's RX would be the cause.I see in the Reaper render settings screenshot, both Wav64 and BWF are selected, I wonder if one or the other could be causing the issue. Wave64 would be warranted for PCM files exceeding 4GB,
