Windows 10 Pro, WavesNX issue after updating

WavesNX is an audio virtualization software, can be selected the same way as a sound card. The GUI stopped working after updating from 1909 to 2004. File in question is WavesNxApp.exe.

Waves can still be selected in the os/players and still works. After the update the sound devices were mixed up.

Had a clone of the os on another drive, for testing. There on 1909 Waves works fine.

Tried everything I could think of, updated to the latest os version, whitelisted waves in av/malware, uninstalled av/malware, did a clean boot, reinstalled waves, removed the xonar card and used the onboard sound card, deleted all waves files/registry,

In Resource monitor it shows WavesNX as beeing suspended in 2004, and terminated in the last update. It says access denied when trying to resume or terminate it.

In Event viewer there are some error messages that were not there before, on 2004 and latest version. I will attach some text files with the errors.

Was trying to see if the errors in event viewer were present in before 2004 version, so I installed a new windows installation and starting updating it. It skipped 2004 directly to 20h2. Then updated to the latest.

Waves runs fine.

So I assume it's something in 2004.

Is there a way to update only to 2004 to test it out?

Solution 1:

Update, support advised to go to Color Management>Advanced>Device profile to sRGB IEC61966 2.1, and default to the rest as well. Not sure how, but it fixed the problem.
