Title: "Thread failed to start" error
Post by: Irzagald Arde on June 24, 2020, 11:42:45 AM
Hi. I joined now to ask a question about an error. Yesterday when switching between songs MusicBee stopped playback and an error appeared with a yellow "!" and said: "Thread could not start." I closed MusicBee and started it again and it's fine from then... What was that error about? Thanks in advance.

The error is too vague to offer any suggestions

It was reported within MusicBee interface... Does MusicBee have a folder where it stores error logs?

Look at the timestamps and see if there's an entry from the time you experienced the error. If so, copy and paste it here.

I think this is it.

I updated but I don't know did I do it right. I downloaded the latest full version installer and just installed it over the former version. Is that ok or should I uninstall before installing a new version?

Installing a 3.3.x over a previous 3.3 is fine. If you're asked if files should be overwritten, say yes.
