You don’t need to be a company to log into zoom. You just click the zoom link and it connects you.

I don't know if you're aware of it but the new Zoom Link in help on xlights takes you to a sign up page not a meeting page with the ID number like the link at xlights.org.

Takes me right in

After couple of hours of working on the issue , seeing that the setup of the tabs was changed, the one sequence that I finally got working was changed, I deleted xlights , and the folders connected to it. I reloaded xlights to a new folder, reentered the setup and layout tabs. I'm glad I had paper notes to help me along. Now I just need to redo all my sequences. Then test it all to make sure its OK. I'm glad I do not do musical sequences.

You told us everything is working fine on your regular computer and that its only the computer that plays the show that has an issue.  So it would be completely nutballs to recreate your entire setup, layout, and sequences over on the show computer when you can just copy the directory over.

Well coping the files might be good but I do not have my entire show on my normal computer and also my normal computer is a 32 bit as the show computer is a 64 bit. So I only do full sequences on the show computer, and experiment with effects on the normal computer, which I can quickly access the internet. It still stands that something happened to the show computer that changed something, and it happened after I downloaded the updates.  Charlie J. ps I'm getting my sequences done.

xLights saves a backup of your show folder every time you open the program unless you turned that feature off.  I'm 100% sure the installer did not delete anything and you probably have good files somewhere on that computer.  I'm sure it was the cat's fault walking across the keyboard.

If you had gotten on Zoom I was going to help you find the xlights files that you misplaced.
You wouldn't be the first one I helped who forgot where they set xlights to store the files.
