peteb Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I am trying to install Pro Tools First and have downloaded the programme and set up a licence on iLok, etc. However, when I click on the Pro Tools First icon on my desktop it comes up with the error message "Pro Tools First could not be loaded" / "Import DLL mfc120u.dll cannot be loaded". Any advice on what I should do or what have I missed / done wrong in the set-up? Many thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteb Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 Thanks for that - appreciated I did get a response from the Avid YouTube page with the same advice. I still had an issue and was then advised to open PTF in Administrator mode,which seems to have done the trick. All the instructions I got was that I needed iLok to get the licence for PTF. To be fair, that didn't seem to be the problem, more an issue with Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouMa Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 It still annoys me that software is released before all glitches are ironed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteb Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 I still had issues after I managed to actually install PTF (had to open in Administrator mode, couldn't import mp3s). I ended up uninstalling it and going with Ableton Live 10 Lite instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
